1966 Amphicar 770

This 1966 Amphicar Model 770 is finished in red over white and black vinyl upholstery and is powered by a 1,147cc Triumph inline-four mated to a two-part manual gearbox delivering four forward speeds and reverse on land along with forward and reverse to the twin propellers. Additional equipment includes white 13″ steel wheels, marine navigation lights, and a nautical horn. The car was acquired by the selling dealer in 2023 from the estate of a collector, and subsequent work involved installing a replacement white convertible top. This Amphicar is now offered at no reserve by the selling dealer with service records, spare parts, and a Minnesota title listing the car as a 1964 model. The car was repainted red in 2023 under previous ownership, and a replacement white convertible top was installed in preparation for the sale. Marine navigation lights, a nautical horn, a vented engine cover, and a single exhaust outlet exiting through the tail panel are further details. The seller notes various blemishes and imperfections in the paint and bodywork. White-finished 13” steel wheels wear chrome hubcaps and are mounted with whitewall tires. The front wheels serve as rudders when the car is afloat, and stopping power on land is provided by hydraulic four-wheel drum brakes. The seller states that the brakes were serviced in 2024. The cabin features a split front bench, a rear bench, and door panels trimmed in white and black vinyl. Amenities include a lockable glovebox, floor-mounted shifters, and door sealing latches. The two-spoke steering wheel frames Moto Meter instrumentation consisting of a 90-mph speedometer flanked by a clock and a combination gauge. The five-digit odometer shows 10k miles, approximately 20 of which have been added by the selling dealer. The rear-mounted 1,147cc inline-four was factory rated at 43 horsepower and 61 lb-ft of torque. An electric fuel pump has been added. Power is sent to the rear wheels, the dual nylon propellers, or both through a two-part Hermes transmission with a four-speed manual gearbox driving the wheels and an integrated two-speed gearbox with forward and reverse gears for the propellers. A collection of spare and removed parts will accompany the car.
