President Lyndon B. Johnson drives his Amphicar on April 10, 1965.
This amphibious land-to-water automobile of West German origin was produced for a number of years in the course of the 1960s.
Johnson, a sensible joker, reportedly loved bringing unsuspecting visitors into his Amphicar and exclaiming that the automotive’s brakes had failed because it sped towards, then into, the lake on his Texas ranch.
