Fountain Valley BodyWorks is an auto body and collision repair shop located in Fountain Valley, California. The bodyshop is responsible for building The World's Fastest Amphibious Vehicle, as certified by the Guinness World Record, and serves as the headquarters of amphibious car manufacturer Watercar.[1] The shop was founded in 1975 by Dave March.
Makers of WaterCar
Using the technology and technicians from his bodyshop, March has produced three working amphibious vehicle prototypes, as well as one commercial vehicle from his bodyshop headquarters. In 2010, March and Fountain Valley Bodyworks set the Guinness World Record for The World's Fastest Amphibious Vehicle with their Python Prototype, achieving speeds of 204 km/hour (127 mph) on land, and 96 km/hour (60 mph; 52 knots) on water.[2] In June 2013, The Panther became the first commercial vehicle released by WaterCar and Fountain Valley BodyWorks.[3]
