Default RV-8 Inspiration in Florida?

My wife and I left our home in snowy Upstate NY this morning for a week long dose of vitamin D in Florida. I've been elbow deep in wire, crimpers and teminals for the last several months as I plug away on the RV8 build and thought it would be fun to visit and RV8 owner or builder in our travels through Florida. We'll be in the Miami area through Monday (12/30) then heading up the west coast to Ft. Meyers until 1/1 and flying out of Orlando/Sanford on 1/2. Please let me know if you would like to show me your 8 and chat about all things RV.

Thanks!

Chris

Try stopping by Spruce Creek. We have over 60 RVs on the field, and many more under construction. We're locate just south of Daytona Beach.
