Ship it or drive it....

Where abouts in Florida?

I am mid state on the East Coast Melbourne/Palm Bay, Florida area right now. 60 miles South of Cocoa Beach. (heading out in a couple weeks)

Could go lay a pair of eyes on it and take it for a drive to see if it's anywhere near road worthy for you, if it's not too far away.

In reality I would say with those 3.23 gears, the engine is going to be spinning 3,500 - 4000 rpm at 80 mph at today's freeway speeds.

24 hours drive time FL to WI.

Best to get it up on a trailer for the 1800 mile trip home.

Dirty fuel issues on a 50 year old car that has been sitting is always a big concern too. Over heating a stroker engine is all to real.
