Where are majority of Southern Florida warbirds located?

Im traveling to Key West for work early Feb for a week and figured maybe I would venture elsewhere in southern florida in search of other warbirds to visit, maybe get some trading done. Anyone in Southern Florida?

There's a P-51 based at Key West, but I can't recall the details on her... Mark Watt delivered it there about a year ago it seems for the new owner. Not sure what Fred Cabanas is flying these days, but he has the biplane sightseeing operation out of the airport on Key West as well.

There's the Wings Over Miami air museum at the former hangars of the Weeks collection at Tamiami near Miami.

But most of the stuff is still in the Orlando area... Kissimmee (KISM) has Stallion 51, the collection of Tom Blair, and Warbird Adventures and White 1 Foundation. Fantasy of Flight is to the west with the huge collection of Kermit Weeks' and to the east is the Valiant Air Command and Air America Foundation at Titusville.
