IN the sixties, the "Amphicar" from Germany made a splash. It was a two seat drophead coupe, and had a somewhat boxy appearance. It looked awkward but the rear end sported two propellers.
Over the years, several "Aerocars" have been proposed, and one type enjoyed a cult like following, and I believe some still exist.
In the early seventies, a Ford Pinto was modifed to accept a set of wings and empennage, with a pusher prop. The engine was a rear set 4-cyl horizontally opposed aircraft engine.
