This 1915 Model T has cropped up from time to time.

I ran across some information about the car, Trilacoochee Ford in Green Swamp, Florida offered what was called a High Water Kit, although the dealership didn't offer installation, it was a DYI kit.
In that era crossing rivers was dangerous and the kit allowed the vehicle to cross the rivers in a safer way. HRP

 

Just goes to show the Florida Man meme isn't something that only goes back decades, they've been at it for at least a century!

 

Until I saw the dealership that sold the kit I thought someone made the suspension,. HRP

 

I almost bought one of these for the total cool factor of it all. They were used to drive through a standing tobacco crop and spray. I didn’t think it would clear the wires once I had it loaded onto a trailer.
