First post. Just got my Amphi, a Beach Sand '67. Missing the tie rod cover. Do I need it? If so does anyone have one or do I just make one up?
 
Hello David. Welcome to the club and to Amphicar ownership. The fun has just begun.

WRT the missing tie rod cover, I think you mean the large metal plate 11-34-10 protecting the steering rods. Probably reduces water drag as well. Have you checked Gordon's? It's in their catalog for a reasonable price. Wouldn't be too difficult to have a functional replacement fabricated. Have you reached out to the seller? Good luck.
 
Yes, the large metal plate. I thought it would affect the drag in the water. Does anyone have a good, used one? Don't need a new one. As for other parts, I am in the process of creating a list of all of the stuff I need so I will be buying a LOT of stuff from GI and others. I am also looking to get all of the info I can on this car. It belonged to Inna Cabanas, she was the Treasurer of the IAOC for a while.
 
Used. cleaned and painted.. $75.00 here in Fl.
Fiberglass replacements $70.00 but think there back home in Ontario.. going back end of month
