  • Patent number: 4568309
    Abstract: A multi-action toy vehicle which includes a chassis having first and second rear wheels rotatably supported thereon. The toy vehicle includes first and second arms pivotally supported on the chassis proximate the rear wheels, which each include a projection. A weighted lever is movably supported on the chassis, which selectively changes the balance of the toy vehicle depending on the position thereof. The lever also selectively contacts the first and second arms to cause the first and second projections to selectively extend through the chassis. The projections will contact the surface on which the toy vehicle is riding to cause the toy vehicle to perform multiple actions.
