Carolina Traveler: Amphicar

I know a couple of people that own them. At least one learned the hard way about the drain plug.
 

There’s was two of those sitting in the woods in an old junkyard in Wilson, NC several years ago. The owner wouldn’t let me photograph them. They had been there for decades. That was the best of all the old yards I’ve visited. Over 1000 cars from the 40’s to the early 2000’s. The further I walked back in the older they got. I plan a revisit. There was trail cameras on trees because people go in at knight & steal stuff. So he’s very protective on who goes in & what you get to do while in there.
 
Disney Springs in Orlando has a half dozen of them they use and you can ride in.
 
Loved those as a kid. I used to tell my dad I wanted to fix one up and he just rolled his eyes.... I get that now.
 
Rather get one of these:
