I bought this Car from the Aykroyd Family and resored it around 2005.The father said he was selling it for his Son. It was not till I was on my way home and talking to my buddy that we realized I had Bought Dans Car! I have a decal on the back with the Blues Brothers on Stage.
Does anyone remember the episode of candid camera where this woman pulls up by the river and ask where some city is? Others pointed across the river and said over there. Of course there was no bridge and she says thanks then puts the car in gear and drives into the water. Candid Camera was a great show in the 60's when I was a kid.
It was great to learn the history of the car, and see it in the water! That stream doesn't look too deep..but evidently it had enough depth for Amphicar! :D Jack
no problem! its fun being a car detective! i thought that Blues Brothers decal and the "The Aykroyd Car" saying had something to do with the car's history, and i guess it does! :) and i guess this car gets around not only in the real world, but on the internet as well, and thanks for the comment Jack
lol lol that is true! also Castro is lucky these cars never took off in Cuba! lol lol the Cuban citizens trying to escape and seek refuge in the U.S. would not have to convert old cars to boats! lol if i could get one of these Amphicars i would try my best to improve performance, and then i would have my self a handy dandy fish boat! and i would never have to unload or load a boat on a dam trailer! lol lol just make sure no one opens a door! but there is two locks inside to stop that mistake
well they kinda do, if you go look up Amphibious cars, you will find a few modern examples, but nothing beats the classic look of these Amphicars! and thanks for the comment!
it sure is a interesting color for it, also funny thing is Jack (Raconter1) has the same car in one of his videos, i posted this video as a response video, so far this is the second car that i have come across that Jack has as well, kinda hits home its a small world after all :) and thanks for the comment BOGAR!
