Welcome to the Amphicar list/digest. Dedicated to the discussion of the Amphicar,
"the car that swims".
IMPORTANT!! Effective 01/13/2008 this group has MOVED to http://www.amphicar770.com and is now closed to new posts or members.
I purchased my own Amphicar (a white 1965) in Spring of 1998 and was surprised at how little information was out there on the web about these cars. Since then, this list has become a leading resource for Amphicar owners or fans to share ideas, ask questions, swap stories, find parts, etc. Potential Amphi owners may find it helpful to learn about the cars prior to purchase.
This list came into being on 27 July 1998. As of April 2005 we have more than 480 members. Traffic seems to come in ebbs and tides (pun intended) but as membership growns so does the volume.
Do tell your friends about it and don't hesitate to post a message from time to time. A good place to start is with a simple introduction detailing how you came to be an Amphicar owner and/or afficianado.
This list is available in standard format whereby messages are received individually in your mailbox as they are posted by other list members. You may also elect to read messages on-line only or else subscribe in digest format whereby a single consolidated message of the days postings are received each day Set your preferences via your YahooGroups acount setting. Messages you wish to post should be sent to amphicar-lovers@yahoogroups.com.
