We can install simple scripts to hide the new Google search results toolbar. The solution does not completely turn back to the classic Google. Here is another solution but it may be disappeared if Google has removed the support: Type the following in the address bar,

and get back to the old days. Congratulations.
Google has a new panel on the left for better navigation. If you don’t love it, you can actually hide the panel and change back to the old Google Search. Two userscripts, OldGoogle and REMOVE Google Sidebar, would be useful. After installation, the sidebar will appear for one second and hidden immediately in the Google Search results. Unfortunately, the new button style cannot be reverted.
For Google Chrome users, they can just press the link above to install. For Firefox users, you will need the Greasemonkey at first.

Glue the yellow part and you will have a paper iPad. We suggest you to use heavy weight paper to make it feel more solid.
