hi,
i have had the same ideas, but you would have to waterproof your electrics,

Hi
I guess you'd have to waterproof the driver as well, or at least get him some wellies.
And just a thought, would a toylander float? it's built like a boat hull, so how about an amphicar?
I have enough problems with the standard Toylander!
Best of luck

Amphicar? Is that your next project then Walter? Or is there already one out there!!

back to the point, does someone actually have a petrol one, i am about to start work on building one with a series 3 landrover grille.

You're better off building a battery powered one,as you can get it insured, drive it in the park and on the pavement, unless you've got a huge garden or field. I toyed with the petrol idea for a while but went electric, you could mount the engine in the rear you'd need a  metal mounting plate to avoid damaging the plywood, i guess it depends on what type of engine you use, bike/lawnmower/generator/chainsaw etc etc which will determine the drive system.
