Floyd Garrett
We lost Floyd today. I’ve known him since childhood and I’ll miss him greatly.

Was just on the fb page and they closed the museum....
It is with mixed emotions that we inform you that as of October 31st, 2021, Floyd Garrett’s Muscle Car Museum will close permanently. It has been 25 years ago that Floyd had the vision of having a first class American Muscle Car Museum. That dream of his has been fulfilled. He would like to thank each of you for your patronage throughout these years and will always be thankful for the friendships he’s acquired. To all of the museum’s followers, thank you for your kind words of encouragement via Facebook. Best wishes to all and may God bless each of you. Thank you, Floyd Garrett’s Muscle Car Museum |

So sorry we lost Floyd. He was a real gentleman. I remember he had a car at MCACN at the same time a certain Hemi Cuda convert. was displayed and the owner was pitching a fit because his car up front was not displayed to his satisfaction. Floyd took his own car down off of his display pedestals and had us put the Cuda up on them to make the owner happy. My preference was to show the owner the door but Floyd was just plain calm class. Miss you Floyd.

So sad to hear this, he was a pioneer collector.

From the old Super Chevy Sunday days - Indy. He sure knew how to make a hotel entrance!

I remember his cars in Musclecar Review when I was a kid. Always said I was going to get to see his museum in Sevierville someday, but it still hasn't happened :(
I was lucky enough to meet him at MCACN one year, what a loss. Just a a great hobbyist who loved sharing his knowledge and his cars with everyone. |
