Organized Muscle

Barracuda Babe here, with an update on organized muscle appreciation.

Who says group dymanics is dead? Not I, said Robert J. Putnam.
Googling various muscle car-related search words recently, I came across a couple of clubs in the area that I felt I should share with you.

The first is the Corvette Club of the Palm Beaches, the owner of which is VERY good about keeping the site up-to-date and welcomes not only classic corvettes into the Corvette Club, but as you might imagine, all corvettes young and old, fiberglass and chrome-made. Follow the link above to learn more about the Corvette Club of the Palm Beaches.

The second, and very official muscle car club I found so far is the Sunshine State GTO Association. This is one I'd LOVE to belong to if I had my very own GTO, but the SSGTOA encourages amyone who is interested to join.

Below is their mission statement; a clear mission, along with appointed officers and national recognition, is the mark of a club that is serious about what it does:

The Sunshine State GTO Association is a club that was founded in the summer of 1993. What started out as a small group that occasionally attended events and worked on GTO’s together, organized a club that would create a Family for all GTO enthusiasts. We gained a charter to the national organization – GTO Association of America- in the fall of 1993.

Our membership has grown consistently through the early years of our clubs existence and continues to flourish. While the majority of our members are GTO owners, the club has no restrictions on car ownership. Some members own other types of Pontiacs while others have no Pontiac at all. Everyone is welcome. We have a diversity of our member’s cars. They range from National Concourse winners to quarter mile warriors, from weekend cruisers to everyday drivers and restorations-in-progress.

Enjoy for now and I will get back to you all Wednesday when I hit Fuddruckers.
