MUSCLE CAR CITY

While visiting friends in South Florida, I had the opportunity to visit Muscle Car City in Punta Gorda.

Muscle Car City is a private collection of classic GM cars (mostly Chevrolets) located in an old Wal Mart.  The museum is open to the public during weekdays and the cost of admission is $12.50.

The collection of cars at Muscle Car City is a must see for any car lover, but is especially interesting for classic Chevy collectors.  On display were cars from pre-war to the 1970s, including Corvettes from the mid  fifties through the 1970s, a 1969 Judge, 1970 442 W30, numerous Camaros, Chevelles, and El Caminos, early 1960s 409 Chevys, and many trucks.

As we toured the museum, we noticed a number of the cars had signs on them indicating they would be sold at auction in April.  If you have plans to visit, check their web site before making the trip.

Here are photos of some of the cars.
