    Ladies and gentlemen start your engines!

    The American Muscle Car Museum at 3500 Sarno Road in Melbourne, Florida will be hosting their annual Celebration of Cars 10 am to 3 pm on Saturday, March 27, 2021.

    Over 900 antique, classic and modern automobiles are expected this Saturday at the American Muscle Car Museum's 2021 Celebration of Cars. Maybe your car should be shown here in Brevard County, Florida. This is the place to pump up your ride or get some great ideas from the professionals in classic cars restoration. Either way, it all happens at the American Muscle Car Museum in Melbourne Florida this Saturday.

    The American Muscle Car Museum is a state and national treasure for antique and collectible cars. The 123,000 square foot American Muscle Car Museum displays in Melbourne, Florida over 347 muscle cars. Many of the cars in the museum are considered rare versions. The museum boasts a large collection of Shelbys and Yenkos. You can find Indianapolis 500 pace cars and Mustangs, the latter my personal favorite. Be sure to see the 1966 Shelby 350 and 427 Cobra at the Celebration of Cars if you like serious American muscle power.

    The eclectic collection at the museum belongs to scientist and entrepreneur Mark Pieloch. Mr. Pieloch has invested a lot of time and money in creating a highly impressive muscle car collection housed at the American Muscle Car Museum. The estimated worth of Mr. Pieloch's rare muscle cars is approximately $32,000,000 USD. Pieloch has collected cars since 1974. Because Pieloch was an exchange student in Germany, the museum collection includes an impressive array of Porsche's and the world's largest collection of Porsche tractors.

    The models regularly shown in the museum start with the year 1955 and include many models from the 1969-70 period. But this Celebration of Cars in Saturday will feature even more muscle cars you can consider owning and restoring if not just plain indulge in and admire.

    What's your favorite muscle car of all-time and why? Tell us in the comments below and let the best muscle car of all time discussion commence. So far over 525 cars have regsitered for showing outside on museum grounds with Mark Pieloch's collection of 347 muscle cars housed inside the museum.

    The mission of the solar-powered American Muscle Car Museum is three-fold: (1) fundaraising with no cost to charities, (2) auto-related events, and (3) educating everyone from first-graders to college students and adults. This mission is led by Ed Dedick in operations, restoration techs Jerry Frye and Todd McCarty, and social media and event coordinator Andrew Mackey. Most important are the friends and volunteers who staff the museum which opens for special events like the Celebration of Cars.
