Here's a 1943 VW Schwimmwagen amphibious vehicle ... www.oldbug.com/schwim1.htm ... a 75-year old .... look'n totally ready for anything with a shovel, paddle, and rifle ... located on west coast, U.S., prior to sold.

Obviously, what it needs is a camouflage colored foam noodle!

Supposedly, could be a fake Russian copy of the real 1943 Ford, made in the USA...... who you gonna believe? If it was Russian made, it be a dilapidated wood wagon, and be pulled by a tired, old donkey doing the donkey paddle.

And, here's a Volkswagen 1942 Schwimmwagen, 59-second, Nazi Germany, WWII propaganda film short that may be authentic (?) but probably not, because is just too crisp to be a real reel of film from WWII: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S59Z7dfvj50
