Amphicar, triumph herald based ,beautiful! Actually the only thing that is Triumph Herald is the engine! The gearbox is from a Porsche 356 and there's a special transfer box to the propellers too. I did some work on the one that appeared on Salvage Squad. The bloke at the wheel was one of the guys who drove (?) a pair across the channel. One broke down and was towed the rest of the way by the other.  |
