No, That is a single carb with the typical aircleaner for kubel. Nothing special. _________________ Zelensis, glassfibre body made in Belgium , disigned and built on a VW platform About 25 body's built.

^^I like the way the officer has no idea what he's looking at, but will no doubt write a report. _________________ "we're here on Earth to fart around" kurt vonnegut

This appears to be Ferry Porsche (in civilian cap) conducting Typ. 128 Schwimmwagen testing.
Can any of our experts confirm this?

don't see why not, he was partial to flat caps. looks like an early 128 and I'm pretty sure this is also Ferry driving car number 3 with Dr P looking on
the production version had a more boat like hull, here's number 20. these cars tended to suffer from flexing so that is why the type166 has a shorter wheelbase
