The is an outstanding example of an original
unmolested late model Amphicar. This is one of their last examples
manafactured and has both the bilge blower and interlock bilge
switch. This requires that the bilge blows for 60 seconds before the
igniton will start. It has other saftey features only produced on
the last models: no glare dash and Spark arrestor on carberator . It
also has the manual bilge blower and on board bilge pump.
This is a very low mile Amphicar and appears to have mostly original paint. The interior is in like new condition retaining original top, floor mat and trim. The car has had a recent tune up and performs remarkably well.
The Amphicar is the only production vehicle ever produced to operate on land and in water. It met both Coast guard requirements and DOT regulations at time of importation.
It is truly remarkable to find a vehicle in this condition. There are a few scratches which have been touched up but it would be travesty to redo a vehicle in this condition.
The original jack and owners manual--although a bit tattered--and original tool kit come inside. Based on the recent auction results, it appears the the collector world has once again put the Amphicar in its proper place.
The interior of the engine compartment--as the pictures show-- has the original cosmoline in tack and there is no evidence of any corrosion or damage from battery leakage.In the original battery old down is still in place. This in itself is quite a rarity.
Potential bidders and encouraged to visit the car and make any needed inspections prior to bidding. Seller reerves the right to cancel any bid from bidders with less than 10 feedbacks unless prior arrangements are made. Seller reserves the right to end auction at any time.
