If I'm down in Florida when you guys do this, I'll join in, though I probably won't be in my Goblin...

If you go down I-75, I am 20 Miles from the I-10 / I- 75 intersection.

Mine was 18 weeks and 2 days... And I ordered mine before the rush hit. Grant it the shippers accounted for 2 weeks of that. FYI you must add 8.25% to the cost of of the kit if you pick it up.Thanks, 4 weeks down 8+ to go
I have decided to drive the 1,300 miles and pick it up myself

I finally did the same last year & it was a 2,100 miles round trip. I did pickup two other frames as well, #230 for Jared and #234 for Patrick. Have a safe trip.Thanks, 4 weeks down 8+ to go

Yes, but if I don’t pay the taxes there I’ll have to pay it here, plus the shipping cost and potential extra wait time for it to be shipped with other kits.
Plus the opportunity to meet Lonny, his family and crew will make the trip worthwhile. It will be like meeting Henry Ford

This is all very true. I flew out before I ordered my kit to try on frames. Was well worth the trip.Yes, but if I don’t pay the taxes there I’ll have to pay it here, plus the shipping cost and potential extra wait time for it to be shipped with other kits.

What is the Sales Tax in Florida?Yes, but if I don’t pay the taxes there I’ll have to pay it here, plus the shipping cost and potential extra wait time for it to be shipped with other kits.

I agree with you there! I hope when mine is ready I have the ability to take a long weekend and go get mine as well. Maybe if there are a few more needing delivery around the same time, I can pick up a few and split the cost of a rental truck...

His build thread is here, updated Sunday
Dragon Motorsports 1.0 [Extended\Full-Cage\Double Door Bars] - [Frame #290] - SOLD
So the journey begins :) It doesn't matter type of project, I'm not one that can be without a project regardless of the type. I have built a Motorcycle from a kit, 120 Gallon Saltwater Reef Tank, 30'x10' Chicken Coop, and most recently just finished a 68 Camaro LS3 Engine Swap. With all that...

I have been thinking about buying another one once I am done with my first and putting an automatic transmission in it and then renting it out on TURO. Being in South Florida, I think I could probably keep it rented most of the time...
