Amphicar
3,880 Amphicars were produced 1960-1964 in Germany.
The amphicar was the first and only amphibious car to ever be sold to the public. It was powered by a rear mounted Triumph 1.2L engine that could go 70 mph on land and 10 mph on water. The transmission has similiarities to a 356 Porsche. You steer with the front tires controlled by the steering wheel.
