Paul,
Aren't these folks near you at the airport?  Ed, the owner, used to
work for me, and I know he's a first-class builder.
The P51 kits are from his company,  http://www.legendaryaircraft.com/

Any thoughts?

Yes I know the guy. He is in a new set of hangars at SZP called
"Area 51". I don't think he is selling many kits although
it is a neat airplane. Here are some pictures I took recently
in his hangar. I am trying to talk him into trying a 3 rotor
but I don't think the necessary finances are available.
I have a lot more pictures if anyone is interested.
One kit where you would not have to mess with doing a
liquid cooling system cowl :)
