Car-Boat


I think what killed this 1956 amphibious flying car was the need to radically restructure suburban garages.

  1. Either that, or the need for three different licenses to legally operate the darned thing. (OL/pilot's/smallcraft.)

    And oh yes, what happens when you get rear-ended by a '49 Hudson?

    cheers

  2. Corrosion might be an issue. Not so much salt water eating holes in the body panels, as weakening the bits that hold the wings on.

Rules for submitting comments:

1. No profanity. I maintain the pretense that this is a family-friendly site.

2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.

3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.

4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.

Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.

Note: Due to the recent spate of anonymous spamming, registration for comments is now required.
