As a warm up exercise for Mr Emslie’s main event on Friday, let’s go with an early Mystery Car Bonus edition today.
Difficulty wise, well, you either know it or you don’t. If anybody participates, I’ll throw the answer up right here tomorrow lunchtime.
Clues? There’s only one. What day is it?
Oh, OK, here’s a wider shot, the first image was a bit cruel. You’re on your own now. Don’t go leaping to any conclusions.
(Edit 06:25 Tuesday Morning)
So you got it already. I didn’t even have to give you this wider version of the above shot with a nice little clue on the dashboard, in warning sticker form:
Yes, Amphicar. Well done indeed. Good license plate, too.

Mystery Car: Bonus Edition
-
That’s an older VW wheel, if I’m not mistaken. Beyond that, nothing looks familiar.
-
I’d say that Is the Holstentor in Lübeck, Northern Germany, and there is only one car…..
Amphicar.-
That would explain the similar rust pattern on the floorboards.

-
Amphicar 770! (1961-68, 1100cc engine)
-
What day is it? Why Martin Luther King Day, of course. So the car is clearly an Aston Martin drivetrain in a King Midget chassis.
-
If these were both more robust and much cheaper, I could easily convince my wife to buy one. We are often blocked from our village with kindergarten, shops and my job when there are land slides on the one road connecting us. This one would help. Our little boat isn’t a working option.
-
Stay tuned for more exiting amphibious developments. Same channel, not sure what time.
