The Swamp Buggy was created out of necessity, in Naples, Florida, as a vehicle with which to traverse the vast, boggy swamp known as the Everglades during early development of that region in the 1930's and 1940's. The versatile "Swamp Buggy" was a tall, ungainly and strange looking vehicle, riding on huge balloon tires, which could be used for everything from hunting expeditions deep into the Everglades to Sunday afternoon outings.
