Is anyone aware of some good yards with forwardlook-parts in Florida? I'll be around there in January and would like to use the chance to visit some.
Thanks in advance for your tips!

You need to be a little more precise as to where you are going to be. Fla. is a huge State, it takes about 15 hours on the Interstate (@ about 70 MPH) to go from Miami to Pensacola.

I'll do a roundtrip but the main locations are:

- Miami
- Orlando
- Daytona
- Fort Myers / Cape Coral
- Tampa

I don't think that I will get more northern as Daytona. So anything around that locations or on the way from one to the other would be interesting!
Thanks!

it's north of Orlando, but I would highly recommend the Museums that Don Garlits has @ Ocala. Right off the Interstate. I'm a Hemi nut & even I hit sensory overload in his Drag Racing Museum!

Also, in Gainesville, which is about 45 minutes north of Ocala, there's a joint called Al's Roadside Relics. He usually has some forwards. He's only open on Wednesdays. PM me for his phone number if you want.
