Description
The Amphicar is a unique chapter in the history of the car. It is a car that can sail and drive, but is a compromise. So it is a boat that does not travel optimally through the water and a car that is not one of the best performing on the road. It is made of considerably thicker steel and therefore somewhat heavier. It has two screws and steers with the front wheels. Any incoming water can be drained with a bilge pump. The engine is that of the British Triumph Herald. At the time, the Amphicar cost about the same as two Volkswagens. About 3000 were made.
