Perhaps not, no pictures, but I read about the same 'vehicle' and incident in
the Kansas City Star this am.

OK, I'll bite.
I did a Google search and came up empty. Do you have a URL to any mention of
this? Maybe some newspaper article or TV web site? Sounds awful "urban
legendish" to me.

The US Coast Guard just yesterday sunk a 1951 5 window AD, in the Gulfstream
between Cuba and Florida. It was deemed a hazard to Navigation after Quite few
Cuban refugees were taken off of it and returned to Cuba. the truck/raft was
kept afloat by 55 gallon drums, and had a propellor attached to the driveshaft,
that pushed it along at 8 MPH. The Coast Guard intercepted the Chevy truck
about 40 miles off the coast of Cuba.
