1962 Amphicar

This is a nice driver and swimmer. Engine runs great with no smoking or funny engine noise. No overheating issues. The transmission will need a servicing sometime in the next year as the Syncros are worn. In my ownership, I rebuilt the brakes, added replacement shocks on the front, replaced the double lip axle seals and wheel bearings, upgraded the bilge pump and completely serviced and greased the remaining driveline, steering and suspension. All the lights work, including the navigation lights. Speedo and Temp gauge not working, but I do have a new cable for the Speedo.

I enjoy this car yearly with my family and spend more time in the water than the driving it on the streets. The Amphicar takes very minimal water, never enough to turn on the bilge pump. Its named after my daughter Lily.

Has some chips, scratches and bruises from years of enjoyment. A little rust showing on the lower quarters. I left the top down this winter to find that a mouse needed somewhere to live, hence chewed through a few places on the top. The top was new. The front bumper should be re-chromed and the rear bumpers are probably original.

This Amphicar is ready to use and enjoy upon receipt. Located in Rhode Island

Asking $32,000

13,600 miles. Drives and swims well. No major issues. Good white top and clear back window.
Two bilge pumps, clean interior. All original equipment except CD player.
We have a red 1966 and don't really need two, so the blue one has to go!
