I had one of these as a nipper in the Sixties. I saw this on an old auction. Check out the Aquacar, an amphibious plastic toy car-boat based on the Ford GPA. This great toy model was originally based on a WW2 military vehicle. The toy measured approx 23.5 cm long and it was made in Hong Kong by HSI in the 1960's. I'm pretty sure I had it working in the bath along with my Billy Bastoff Scuba Diver! Did you have an Aquacar readers?
Looks like a Citroen H Van with a snout ! They went to war in that thing ? Brave men ! :)
ReplyDeleteYeah, reminds me of a 2CV Geoffrey but it was a great toy and easilly sailed around the bath. My frogman Action Men kept bumping into it!
