WaterCar Gator

Talk about a cool Jeep, the WaterCar Gator looks like a Jeep TJ but is anything but. The Gator is a fully streetable vehicle that doubles as a boat. Powered by a Corvette V8 this Jeep is fast on land and sea.

We have requested more information from WaterCar but it appears that the Jeep is not four wheel drive and is manufactured using a fiberglass (or similar material) body.  The typical kit utilizes a Volkswagen engine and chassis.
