Thanks Dusty. I do cruise the site and I actually have the page I think that link is for but I am on a flight heading east right now and the wifi on this plane is weird. I can access my email and this forum but it won't load the rest of the site. I am responding to my brother about our dads greenie and when he would have acquired it. Guess it can wait till I land.

Sorry! I could have answered your question directly. The data at the link says that the Greenies were in production 1953 to 1960.

1953 to 1960 (Green)
These units had a Gilmer Drive System (the inside of the top belt is like a tank track). These units were a single bearing spindle. 3/4 Hp motor was the standard.
