Down To The Sea In...

My latest addition from the amazing world of ebay, is a Gama Sea Ranger. The Sea Ranger was originally designed by Luigi Colani and appeared at the 1979 Essen Motor show, based on a Unimog chassis.
The model is around six inches long with a diecast body, gull wing doors and opening roof panel. Designed as a recreational amphibious vehicle, the sea ranger comes with a large antenna array and detachable sports seat.
Oddly, Woodsy gave me a smaller 6 wheeled version, some time back, but I didn't recognise it!

  1. I've been to Essen, a city named Food in English, my kind of place! ha ha. Cool looking toys Bill. I just don't know how you spot them. And I want that six wheeler back.

  2. Never seen that vehicle before but a big fan of the designs of Luigi Colani, yet another interesting future that did not manifest itself.
