Its an Amphicar...  See http://www.amphicar.net/

I always heard that they handled awful both on the land and in the
water, but they sure are neat.

I've glanced over this photo and others a number of times, but I just 
realized that the car in the BACKGROUND is MG-ish but with tail fins,
and 
it's traveling down the river IN the river.  Was it an actual model of 
someones?  Was it just modified a-la that Jimmy Neutron Miata we saw the

other day?  The nose looks like a MG, the tailfins look like, well, 
American, the windshield is a bit odd, and it's seemingly making headway
in 
the water.  What's up with this?

The photo is 220k.  I wanted to leave as much photo info as possible.
If 
no one can identify the car, I'll try to get a better repro.
