Here is a line up of Amphicars plus one VolksWagen Schwimmwagen....

Both made in Germany.....

One during the 2nd world war... VW Schwimmwagen...

and the other was the Amphicar which was made from 1962 - 1967
in Berlin with a British Triumph Herald engine 1147c

Only 4,500 were made.... in both LHD & RHD...

3,700 to the USA in LHD....

Steel body --- so not many left after driving in the Ocean
etc....
