swamp buggies were the way to get across the thousands of square miles of swampland that makes up so much of Florida.
You laugh but I have spent considerable time on buggy's..Those in the picture are actually racing buggy's at the Naples water park, they use nitrix oxcide (spelling ? ) and haul butt... :)

As a kid we used to hunt the everglades and had a hunting camp out there and it was a requirement to have a buggy to get around. We used aviation tires on our buggy..The government closed down all the hunt camps in the everglades so I have not been there for some time.

Thanks for bringing back some memories.. :D

Thanks you guys. The S&M Bradford Green Bone is some of the nicest handle material I've seen, IMO.
