The world is filled with vehicles that run on wheels and tracks but what about those oddballs motivated by screws? This is a history of screw propelled land vehicles and it's a wild journey through more than 2,000 years of history. From the invention of the Archimedes screw to the development of ship propellors to the idea that the same principles could be applied on land, there a great collection of odd and interesting vehicles to learn about.
Amazingly, the Chrysler Corporation was responsible for the two most well known modern screw propelled vehicles, the small the interesting Marsh Swamp Amphibian and the much larger Riverine Utility Craft. Both were built in the 1960s. Both were built for the military.
This is a story about innovation, success, failure, and the interesting lessons learned along the way. Gearhead history!
