Summary

[edit]
Description

The Amphicar Model 770 is an amphibious automobile, built from 1963-67. The German vehicle was designed by Hanns Trippel and manufactured by the Quandt Group. It was designed to be marketed and sold in the USA, only 4000 were produced The front undersurface is slightly pointed and sharply cut away below. The wheels are set low, so that the vehicle stands well above ground level when on dry land. Front and rear bumpers are placed low on the body panels (but fairly high in relation to dry ground). The one-piece windshield is curved. The foldable top causes the body style to be classified as cabriolet. Its water propulsion is provided by twin propellers mounted under the rear bumper
