Riverhead, New York - Muffler Man - Indian

This is the Muffler Man at the entrance to Riverhead Raceway in Riverhead, NY. As you can see, he is in very good shape (and quite intact; here's proof he's got legs). [Anne Heffernan, 02/15/2008]

Yes, this guy is still at the Riverhead Raceway. But he DOES have legs and standard looking Muffler Man feet (boots) under the pants (you just don't see them well through the white fencing). He is very well maintained. Obviously not made from the same Paul Bunyan mold as the regular M-Men, but the same size and "flavor". [Debra Jane Seltzer, 01/20/2002]

Took a long look today at the reported M.M. (Indian) outside the circle race track at Riverhead New York. Not sure this is a retro-fit original M.M. It is a saluting, raised right arm, Indian without shirt but pants under loin cloth, all molded FRP.

The left arm hangs down, not bent at elbow. Elbow looks original. However repairs evident below elbow and at left wrist. Legs shortened, cut off below knees, no feet. Upper torso bare chested, no sign of ever having shirt like Mufflerman. [Tom Bernhardt, 12/15/1998]

I was driving past the Riverhead Raceway on Long Island a few weeks ago (well...passengering) and I noticed that they have a big Indian out in front. Looked like a retro-fitted Muffler Man to me. [Anne Bernstein, 09/03/1997]
