The Floating Spira-Foam Car | Oddity Central - Collecting Oddities


Quote:
Invented by Lon Ballard, the Spira-Foam Car is made out of common motorcycle parts, covered by six inches of foam. It’s powered by a 110 cc scooter engine that returns 100 mpg, has a weight of just 320 lbs and reaches a top speed of 70 mph.

...................But what’s most amazing about this strange car is it’s ability to function on both land and water.
