About Floyd Garrett's Muscle Car Museum
Floyd Garrett's Muscle Car Museum has been listed as a Sevierville car collection focused on American muscle cars, the factory performance machines Detroit built when horsepower was the whole sales pitch. Before you build a day around it, read this section.
Confirm it is open first
We could not find a working official website for the museum, and we could not confirm current hours, admission or whether it is still receiving visitors. Private collector museums change hands, close for stretches and sometimes close for good, so treat any listing for this one as unconfirmed. The simple move is a phone call, or a look at the museum's social media page, before you drive to Sevierville.
If you find that it has closed, the Smokies have other car-minded stops that are easy to confirm:
- Hollywood Star Cars Museum in Gatlinburg, with famous movie and television cars. See our Hollywood Star Cars Museum page.
- The Pigeon Forge Parkway, which has several car-themed attractions, and plenty of cruise-in events in the warmer months.
What a muscle car collection offers
Muscle cars are the big American coupes and sedans of the 1960s and 1970s that came from the factory with large V8 engines. A collection like this one is mostly about seeing the cars up close: the scale of the bodies, the hood scoops, the interiors and the badges. Even if cars are not your hobby, the shapes and colors make for easy photographs.
Planning around Sevierville
Sevierville sits north of Pigeon Forge along the main route toward Knoxville. It is the easiest stop to add when you are heading to or from the Smokies, because the road is lined with outlets and restaurants and you do not have to cross the Parkway traffic in Pigeon Forge to reach it.
- Allow: about an hour for a museum visit if it is open.
- Best timing: weekday mornings, when roads are quieter.
- Before you go: confirm hours and admission by phone, since we could not verify them.
If you can confirm that the museum is open and want to tell us, the information would help keep this page accurate.
