Floyd Garrett's Muscle Car Museum
I'm driving from Chicago to Charlotte on Friday and am thinking of going to Floyd Garrett's Muscle Car Museum in Tennessee on the way. Has anyone else been there and is it worth a visit?
thanks, Jim

Re: Floyd Garrett's Muscle Car Museum
Yes. It's only about 10 miles off I-40. But, depending on traffic, it could take 30 to 45 minutes to get there. There are usually about 90 to 100 cars there. Floyd owns about 8 or 10 of the cars. The rest are on loan to the museum. There are some rare cars there including a 69 Yenko Camaro, L-89 Chevelle, Dodge Daytonas, Super Duty Pontiacs and a few Hemi cars. Well worth the trip.
James

Re: Floyd Garrett's Muscle Car Museum
It is about 8 miles from my house. I could go once a month. Floyd is a great guy, and there most of the time. Let me know if you do stop, maybe we could do it together, then do lunch.

Bill,
I haven't decided exactly when I'm leaving yet, but would like to get together. Will let you know later this week. Jim
