Hotrod store in florida?

Helloo! my parents are going to usa next week and
im wondering if somebody knows an hotrod/Kustom store in florida?
Any with online store too?
Because then my dad could swing by and buy me some
parts.

 

Total Performance just opened up their new store at Destination Daytona in Ormond.....Real cool place to visit

what kind of stuff are you looking for?????

 

www.vintagespeed.com depending on what your looking for though.

 

Thanks! im looking for some mirrors, headlights, headlight bezels (mercury),
exhaust tailpipes, bullet hubcaps etc.

Soft Kustom parts you can say

 

**** florida

 

I thought the Florida shops only sold chrome smoothie wheels?

 

Man... No love for us Florida guys. This state does **** as far as hot rodding stores go. The most custom parts you can find around here is for Honda's and 4x4's. Most of the south Florida population came from some foreign Island. The others that migrated here from the north are to old to even keep up with the speed limit, much less hot rods. Your best bet is to buy parts from fellow hambers or Egay. Mail order and the internet is what I have to resort to. It's rough living here in America's wang.

 

okey, that ****s man!

However i was planning to order some parts from mooneyes, suicidedorrs and some other places, i think i'll buy the parts there then.
But they don't sell a headlight frenching/bezels like this (merc 52-54) :


Somebody knows where to buy those? In florida or in california

 

I agree 100% and the swap meets only have chrome valve covers, and other stuff that is cheaper to buy online.
I seldom find anything I need at swaps anymore. What is there is way overpriced.

 

I agree, not that big on FL personally, but it does have D. Garlits and his museum though and that place is cool.

 

yea i have to go to tx or ga to find anything

 

All that talk about not finding anything at Florida swapmeets, sounds like people that don't go to Sumpter County Swapmeet every month...

 

I use to live near this place they have all that kind of stuff they are in cape coral near fort myers
http://www.rodncustom.com/

 

Not anymore...They moved to Plainwell Michigan.

 

Do they still sell parts?
I hope so cause they carried a bunch of traditional parts and they were always cool to deal with

 

Yeah...they are even a HAMB Alliance vendor.

It ****s for me, because I could order something at noon, and get it by noon the next day.

 

Well, someone is gonna have to change Floridas resposibility to the hot rod folks in need......that being said....i will be opening a shop up in Clearwater very soon...getting all my ducks in a row as we speak. Its not the easiest or cheapest thing just jump into, but Im going to put everything I have into it and hope for the best! I will be looking to vend wheels, www's, and few other things to start out with but since im a custom bodyman and painter by trade I will be offering all kinds of customizing as well. I have a 5,000sq. ft. shop now with a showroom and paintbooth and to top that I will also have an upholstry guy in house! Hope to see some local support?

 

That's like saying your wifes ugly.
Some of us live here Jack ***.

And what's so great about Washinton?

 

WELL SAID.....but come on hes in Washington, theres nothing there that says hot, ***y blondes in bikinis at the beach any weekend you want (except the 2 weekends that get cold a year like Washington!....no wait...thats still Florida!

 

Im just throwing this out there...

My dad (Jere) kinda got tired of having to shop around for parts to build his '40 Ford and roadster projects, so he started buying into companies and is now starting a small business called " Model A's N Up LLC" Its based in Punta Gorda FL, he's been dealing very well with the Brookville boys, Vintique, and others His web page is still coming together but its up and running giving you contact info n such check it out at http://www.modelasnup.com Im not saying he has it all, but drop him a line and ask, cant hurt. I know every so often he'll order complete bodies/frames, pick them up at major shows like York PA Nats, Louisville Nats and bring 'em back to FL. I think he also narrows 9 inchers? By the way if you do talk to him, tell him I sent ya... Thanx, Jason

 

I am changing my response as I realize I was responding to an 18 year old female child.

So my response to this comment is... you got it honey. You must be well travelled to feel that way.

 

when are they coming?
Daytona Hot Rod Spring fling Swap meet is in 2 weeks as well as Billetproof @ DonGarlits....
Florida is ****in Kool....all year round hotrodding NO F&^kin SNOW!....

 

They're coming this wednesday, thank you guys who trying
to help me instead to be "mature" and say "**** florida" to that *****in place.

Note that i need parts to my leadsled build (-51 chevy), but
i seems to be most rod/roadster stores in florida.

Keep on telling me places

 

I'll be in Ft. Myers the first week in April. Maybe I'll check him out. Any other shops in that area of Florida?

 

Best thing about Washington is that she is there, not here. We have enough ***holes already.

 

Shut the **** up noobie.

 

some more?

 

its a she... haha

 

I don't really know of any other places....Hot Rod & Custom Supply would have had everything you are looking for, but as said earlier, they moved to Michigan.
