what are they using for pontoons? Old Volkswagen Beetles? I hear they were water tight

From the looks of the preview, the roof splits lengthwise and hydraulicly folds under the carriage... dunno really though, it was a fast clip

Did anyone see the episode where they built the Beetle airboat? One of the guys on the team was from here, and the "launch" was filmed here. His name was Ronnie Thibodaux, the "crazy Cajun" in the episode, a good friend of mine.
"And look at Elias Wonder. Yeah, take a gander at that buzzard. Forty years ago he was happy, generous, charitable, tall, dark and handsome. Then he took up the fly rod. Now consider him. Uglier than fresh road kill. Evil-eyed, cantankerous, sullen, mean. An anti-social misfit that causes a groundswell of spleen wherever he goes."

Yeah, that one was decent.. So far I've enjoyed the Chevy Impala that turned into 'Freezerburn' the Zamboni machine. Built one of my choppers in 1978 in L.A. with some parts from Jesse, we wuz all young pups then....
