	Cadillac Commando V-100 In the 1963 the Cadillac Gage Company build the first prototype of the Commando. Engine: Chrysler 361 petrol on the left side of the vehicle. Gearbox: manual 5 speed with high/low Leaf spring suspension, power steering, 10,000 hydraulic winch. Amphibious only with preparation and propelled with the wheels to a water speed of 3.5 mph max. The recovery version has an A frame at the front and a 25,000 hydraulic winch. The Commando V-150 (more powerful armament) has the same engine or can be fitted with a V6 Cummins diesel. an auto gearbox 3 speed is an option. Info and picture was send in by Harold Smith
	Camanf (1978) Developed in 1975 in Brazilian. Based on a modified Ford 6X6 F-7000 Chassis, with a localy build Detroit diesel 4-54n engine 147 hp. It looks like a GMC DUKW but is 2500 mm wide, (street legal wide) and things like headlamps, cooling and suspension are very differed. Picture was send in by Michael Boyd.
	Canadair Fisher (1963 to 1964) CL-213 or for military the X-209 engine Rotax 9 hp load 250 kg land speed 19 km/h in water 4 km/h. The caterpillar tracks look complicated but do in fact roll back under there support. In that way they are there own support rollers. it is called an Airoll track and it has 8 tires on each side.
	Canagem Challenger 4x6 (19xx) slmshde09 has emailed me: We purchased this 3 summers ago and really do not know much about it other than it is a blast!  It was made in Canada by a company called Canagem. It is a 4x6 the rear two axles are driven. after that I found out that: It was made in Nepean Ontario years ago by Canagem atv industries ltd. Rear engine 2 seater with fibreglass body, set up similar to a JD Gator but the rear 4 are constant drive. Tracks and skis where an option.
	Canterbury (19xx) The world first (powered) Amphibious side car. I wonder how I can live without it. ;-) The origin of this scan is unknown to me.
	Caraboat (1973) An amphibious caravan (camper trailer) It was built between 1971 and 1973 by Caraboat Ltd, 6 Mansfield Road, Sutton in Ashfield, Nottinghamshire, also known as T & R Carr & Son. The hull was built by Bourne Plastics at Langer, Nottinghamshire. The Internal trailer was built by Bramber Engineering Ltd. Pictures and info come from www.caraboat.com that is run by  a group of people that keep this beauties on the road.
	Cardox Limited (2007) After 15 years of development Cardox Limited produced a fast, efficient, safe water and land going vehicle. Besides the bus models they also make a truck version. It has water jet propulsion and a unique steering systems and many other innovative features. www.cardoxlimited.co.uk
	Catagator You can find more about this machine in the museum of ROUTE6x6. Picture used with permission from ROUTE6x6.
	Caterpillar Goer (1961) Made by Caterpillar and it comes in three flavours, a cargo version 8 tons M 520 / M877 a wrecker version 10 tons M 553 and the tanker 8 tons M 559 see the special page for more info. Le tourneau-Westinghouse has build 15 tons versions in 1959 but they where to large to be usefully in comparison with the 8 tons versions. Pictures where made at the: General George C. Marshall museum located Zwyndrecht NL. The Museum has moved.
	Cayman ASSOCIATION "SECURITY Model CAYMAN 4x4 - brake shooting off-road amphibian Maximum velocity, km/h land 75 km/h water 7 km/h Pressure in tires, 0.1-2.5 kg/cm Fuel tank capacity, 40 litre Fuel consumption, l/100km 17h Engine power, 90 bph Total weight of the vehicle 2000 kg max load 500 kgh This vehicle floats mainly by the big tyres.
	CEFA EFA DSC00859 (1985 1996) CEFA was a part of EWK until 1985. It has the Schottel from the M3 the axle retraction system is M3/Bison Info came from Aurélien from CEFA The vehicle moves thanks to two hydro jets at the rear of the hull, that can swivel 360° To build a bridge of 100 meter length, it takes four vehicles and only 10 minutes. Crew 4  Bridge length 23,68 m  Raft length  34,55 m 2 EFA combined as a raft can transport up to 150 tons Weight 43.000 kg Speed 75 km/h on road The Hull and ramps are mostly build out of aluminium.
	CEFA Gillois type II  (org 1961? but the upgrade is from ?) Amphibian truck/bridge layer. This is the upgrading by CEFA of the French Gillois ferry to improve its capacity from MLC30 to MLC 50.  (45,000 kg)  The First-generation inflatable rubber-side floats have been replaced by bigger kevlar/neoprene float. The implementation is no longer manualy but hydraulically driven, preparation time is now 5 minutes Crew 4 but a minimum of 2 are needed to operate the vehicle The amphibian was the brainchild of French General Gillois
	Centaur From the company that introduced the world famous amphibious ARGO in 1967.  It is half a truck,  half an ATV,  half a boat  half a snow machine. Ok, that is a lot of half's :) and maybe you will need them all :-)  It has a load capacity of 1500 lbs and has a 26 HP diesel or 31 HP gasoline engine. www.argoatv.com
	Centurion BARV (Beach Armoured Recovery Vehicle) (Royal Ordnance Centurion) (Great Britain) This is a Centurion tank, with it's turret removed, and a very tall superstructure fitted in it's place, with the exhaust pipes routed up to the top. It doesn't float: it's job is to wade about in the shallows during an amphibious landing, pushing stranded landing craft back out into deeper water, or pulling sinking/stalled land vehicles up the beach before their crews drown. It's fording capability is listed as 2.895 metres: about twice that of a normal AFV. It may not be very desirable as an amphibian in it's own right, but wouldn't it be handy to have around when you're testing your new prototype, eh? The info was send in by Harold Smith.
	Patrick Costello has wrote me: I have got some pictures of a B.A.R.V. (Beach Armoured Recovery Vehicle)taken on Army & Navy exercise in The Persian Gulf in 1963. When in the Gulf, 1963 -1964, in Army Beach Troop, Royal Engineers, my job was to grease all the wheels after the B.A.R.V had been in the sea. The B.A.R.V. was crewed by 3 R.E.M.E. personnel. It was used to push L.C.T's (Landing Ship Tanks) back off the beaches in Saudi Arabia and Sir Bani Yas, an island were we used to do exercises. Flames used to roar out of the twin high mounted fishtail exhausts when it started up, a frightening sight to the ships officers, as they knew then that the B.A.R.V was about to charge, (it was only supposed to push but a running bump, cushioned by a bundle of branches strapped to the front would soon shift the ships, and only dent the bow doors a bit)
	China (2002) From my broken hard drive this picture of a China ?? Amphib. The MUCH TO BIG email that use to hold this picture was lost.

	Christy M1921 (1921 to 1923) Christies Schwimmpanzer, USA,  The first amphibious self-propelled gun in the world. It is not a 6x6, only the rear axle is driven, the front wheels can steer. If the steering is locked tracks can be used. An extra propultion mode was to connect the rear and mid axle by an external chain. Vehicle weight was 6.500 kg. The 6 cylinder 90 HP Christy engine was placed in the rear and it drove the rear axle through a 3 speed gearbox. Road speed on wheels 50 km/h. Offroad speed on tracks 28 km/h. Water speed 12 km/h. In 1922 it was rebuild in to the M1922 with a bigger gun, more free board and a 4 cylinder engine. The weight was 6.750 kg. The reax axle was raised when tracks were used. Later more armour was added to the M1922. !n 1923 a make over was done with a fourth axle a 75 mm gun, coil suspention on 3 axles exept the driven rear axle that was still to be rased when tracks were used. The 2 rear wheels where larger than the front wheels. On the rear where the same two 3 blade propellors that were used with the M1921and M1922. In the end the M1923 had a sort of closed hull and that makes it also the first amphibios tank.
	Chrysler Labarron (1992) It floats because there is a thick foam layer under the car. Water propulsion comes from a Yahama 650 jet ski in the trunk. This vehicle was for sale on Ebay.
	Chrysler LVM-XI (1958) Build for the US Marine by Chrysler and Borg Warner. A gasturbine turned a generator that gave power to (4 ?) electromotors on the 4 wheels. Water propulsion by a propeller in the rear. The wheels can be moved upwards to reduce drag in the water. About the same size as the Larc XV. Almost nothing is known about this vehicle.
	Chrysler Marsh Screw Amphibian  (AmphiRoll) (1964) Same principle as the DAF screw vehicle, this one can do 14 mph in the mud 8 mph in water and in the snow up to 20 mph. The Marsh Screw was propeled by two large Archimedean screw-type devices that extended the length of the vehicle on each side. Powered by a Chrysler 225 cubic inch, 140 hp, 6 cylinder gasoline engine, the counterrotating screws driven through an automatic gearbox propelled the vehicle through water and marsh terrain adequately, but failed miserably on soil surfaces, especially sand. The average maximum speed attained on test lanes was a meager 1.6 miles per hour. Steering was also not good with the straight mounted rolls. On hard pavement the only way to operate was to roll side ways but not at the same speed as the DAF and then sterring was imposible.
	Chrysler MOFAB (1962) Mobile Floating Assault Bridge/Ferry The hull is designed to give stability in the water without the use of (inflatable) pontoons. The engine is a Detroit Diesel V8-7.1 It is 4 wheel drive with retractable wheels and on the road it is steered in the front. In the water it is propelled by a very large semi out board and steered at the rear by a very large steering wheel. The treadway, not there any more in the first photo, turns 90 degrees and opens to meet the next unit treadway. MOFABs can build a 30 feed bridge in 30 minutes without water preparation.The length is 14.5 meter or 43 feet, width is 3.6 meter or 144 inch and high is 3.5 meter or 141 inch The weigh is 27 ton or 54.000 pounds. 4 MOFAB together can carry 70 ton. The first photo was send in by Laura from Kansas. The second is from a Chrysler advert.
	Chrysler - River Utility Craft  RUC (1969) Disappointing results in the Marsh Screw tests did not end ambitions for screw-type mobility systems. In 1969 Chrysler produced the Riverine Utility Craft (RUC) for the Navy. The RUC traveled on two aluminum rotors, 39 inches in diameter and powered by twin Chrysler 440-cubic-inch automobile engines. lenght 21 feed 6 inch wide 14 feed 6 inch hight 8 feed 9 inch weight 13.000 pounds netto A WES test program in south Louisiana showed: Maximum speed attained on water reached an impressive 18 miles, while speeds on marshy terrain improved to nearly 30 miles. However, speeds on firm soils proved disappointing, 20 miles max and only 4 miles in MUCK. Screw vehicles failed big time compared with the more conventional wheeled and tracked vehicles.
	Chrisler war Screw (1965) Not just a full colour fantasy of an artist. The vehicle was build by the Chrysle Defence Operation Devision but it looks like it was only a full size mockup specaly made for an millitary exebition.
	Chrysler XM 410  (1958) Amphibious 2.5 ton truck (floater no water transmision) The XM410 was built around 1958-1959 by Chrysler Co. 6 prototypes were made. They used a 361 industial engine copled to a push button auto transmision. The bodies were made out of aluminum. They are 8x8,  Full independant suspensions The front 4 wheels did the steering disk brakes on all 8 wheels. The XM410E1was also built by Chrysler around 1965 25 prototypes were built.  They use a Contenental Multifuel engine. The last 2 photo's ar of a nice XM 410 modification. :-) Nike 6.0 and the BMX Crew at the first stop of the AST Dew Tour in Baltimore.
	Citrôen 2-CV (1998 ?) Somebody made a 2-cv AMPHIBIOUS Picture was taken by Remco Schuurman in the South of France and published in the Citroexpert 3-1999. The 2-cv on the right is a catamaran, I'm not sure if it's amphibious and the one on the left has a big outboard motor but no wheels. Picture used with permission from CitroExpert http://www.citroexpert.nl/
	Citrôen (1935, 1936) Kim Scholer while on vacation in Normandy came upon an incredible collection of junk, that the owner claimed was a technical museum. There was however, a submarine car. It is based on a pre-war Citrôen car, and apparently had worked as intended.  The 5CV engine can bread through a snorkel. The diving fins on the front and back suggest that it was more than a bottom crawler. Picture and info send in by Kim Scholer
	Citrôen DS (1960) The current owner Doug Hilton has told me. It has all aluminium body and is made from the components of a Citroen DS (1965). hydro pneumatic suspension, power steering, brakes and gearbox. Dating the components I know the donor car was a brand new UK specification DS of exactly 1965 and the vehicle is witnessed to have been in use during 1966. It probably was one of the most advanced amphibians of that time. Unfortunately, the engine, gearbox, power take off etc. were lost in time. The car has two sets of front wheels, the original ones were moved to the back with the engine and locked into place and another set used for front steering! There for it also has inboard disk brakes. The power for the water drive was taken from the timing shaft sprocket. It was used to get to and from a small island in North Wales UK by probably the owner of Ferranti engineering and his family but this research is still going on. Someone has spent a huge amount of time designing, building and in even shaping the body to look like a Citroen. In the 1960's when Amphicar was boasting they had the only roadworthy amphibian in the world Citroen published a photograph of this amphibian (or a twin?) to say the Amphicar claim was false. UK Citroen at Slough is no help and when I ask the French company, they will simply send the enquiry back to the UK. It seems this may there for be hard to check! If SOMEBODY has ideas on this car or how I could get a reply from Citroen France Then I (Doug Hilton) would be very grateful.
	CLIMBER/ALPHA THE TRACKED ALL-TERRAIN VEHICLE Amphibian tractor and trailer operative on any kind of ground on gradients up to 80% frontal and 45% side. hydrostatic reversible traction 0 - 35 km/h Reversible guiding portable console also for outdoor use. trailer with self traction.
	Clubcar (1999) Truly one of a kind. Fish and golf at the same time!!! it has 2 small electric outboard engines on the rear. in the water turn the rear float down and "sail" away. This vehicle was for sale on Ebay. Can't find the people that made this vehicle.
No picture	Cobra see Otocar Cobra
	Colanni Sea-Ranger (1979) This is not the toy model. It is a real life size Amphib designed by the artist Luigi Colani. In 1979 it was build from Unimog parts by Thyssen in Germany. Thyssen only used it as a show model for his factory. Looks like Science fiction. If you take a close look at the photo's it is clear that: 1. This vehicle was redesigned/rebuild. 2. There is more than one Sea Ranger :-)
	La Comet (1933) It is a replica build in 2000 steering by braking one side I have made an Action Video at the Amphib2001
no picture	Commando see Cadillac Commando V-100
	Conte (1979) prototype only It was presented at Frankfurt Saloon in 1979. It used a Ford engine, with 135 hp, and its max speed was 140 km/h. In fact it was build from mostly Ford parts by Herzog in Germany. I had a 5 speed gearbox with high and low and a PTO to a hydraulic pump to drive the dual hydraulic driven propellers. One propeller could run forward and the other one in reverse so the Conte was highly manoeuvrable. The body was made from steel. It had disk brakes in front and drums in the back. The Herzog Conte is lost in time. Not know to exist any more and probebly scraped. The color photo's are from the brochure . BW photo is a promotion press photo
	Coot (1985) It is 4-wheel drive and has 4-wheel steering it was designed in 1964. The Coot also is articulated. That is, its front and rear bodies (one carries the front wheels, the other the rear wheels) are isolated and revolve around an 8-in. diameter pipe, the only connection between the two. With this arrangement the front wheels stay firmly planted even though the ATV's rear may be canted in steep or twisted terrain. Water speed is 2 m.p.h propelled by wheels, or 5 m.p.h with an optional propeller. Picture taken by Todd Mueller and used by permission.
	Corphibian (1961) prototype It was build by Hulten-Holm & Co on the bases of the Corvair 95 Load side truck with a 6 cyl petrol engine. The first owner Richard Hulten had it for 30 years and drove it 126 miles. It is perfect original, except it has been repainted. On the rear at the end of the loading bay there is a diving platform that also houses the swimm parts This Amphib has 2 propellers and 2 rudders mounted at the  rear. Not know is if there was more than one prototype build. First picture taken by Gary Aube. The other are from cars and parts magazine.
	Corvette Week-end (1967) Look at the one at the rear "the caravan" that is the amphibious one. I like to know more, but this is it for now.
No picture	Covelink (2003) see Cardox Limited (2007
	The Croco It was made in Germany. The Croco is an articulated amphibious vehicle produced by TAG in 1983. Its engine is a Wankel rotative and the transmissions goes through a variator. There is no suspension and the four wheels are steering. Also known as Grocco or Rhino. The rights of the vehicle are now with Kolper near Karlsruhe
	Crocodile You can find more about this machine in the museum of ROUTE6x6. Picture used with permission from ROUTE6x6.
	Crococart (2002) This is the real kid stuff. I want to be a kid just to fit in this vehicle. ;-)
	Crosley with one "s" (1943) He designed many vehicles. This tracked amphibious vehicle was designed for swamps. It holds 7 passengers the engine is a 4 cylinder gasoline 45 hp the water propulsion is by propeller. It can tow an amphibious tracked trailer,also build by Crosley, to transport the wounded. The trailer has no propulsion.
	Cuba 1 AmphiChevy (2003) The 1951 flat bed Chevy was a crude raft design, with 55-gallon drums lashed to the sides, that held the pick-up truck mostly above the waterline. The first attempt to crossing the 90-mile Florida Straits in hope of a better life in the USA. Marcial Basante's, 35 was joined by a friend, Luis Gras, 35, with his wife Isora Hernandez, 26, and their 4-year-old son, Angel. Before attempting their trip in the Chevy, Basante and Gras had made a living using the truck to haul construction materials and merchandise. after they where arrested by US Coastguard the truck was shot and sunk, you can fill in the rest.
	Cuba 2 AmphiBuick (2004) The 1959 Buick was much sophisticated, as the whole body sits into the water. This means a lot work went into waterproofing the hull. The bow works reel good (Fibreglass?) This was Basante and Gras, second attempt to crossing the 90-mile Florida Straits in hope of a better life in the USA. They had worked on the Amphib along with another friend known only by his first name, Rafael, who owned the car. They travelled with their wife and their children making a total of 11 people. Again they where arrested by US Coastguard and again the vessel was shot, so it sunk.
	Cushman trackster You think they do not make them any more like this. You are wrong :) But it is only amphibious with extra pontoons.  www.trackster.com
