ENTERTAINMENT | 2ND ANNUAL MUSCLE ON THE BEACH<br />
More Muscle<br />
BY TOM CRAIG | PHOTOS BY TOM CRAIG<br />
Mustangs, Stingrays, Barracudas, and Thunderbirds were just<br />
a few of the muscle cars of the 1950s-80s that made their<br />
way onto the show field at Old School Square.<br />

The 2nd annual Muscle on the Beach car show filled the grounds<br />
with 132 amazing and colorful American muscle cars, trucks,<br />
restomods, and rat rods, almost double the number of fine automobiles<br />
from last year’s show. This year’s cars came from as far<br />
away as Sanford to the north and Miami to the south.<br />
Upwards of 5000 spectators were in attendance on a somewhat<br />
overcast and light breezy Saturday. This year’s guest host<br />
was Mike Brewer, star of Motor Trend’s hit show Wheeler Dealers.<br />

The proceeds benefit the non-profit Sandoway Discovery Center<br />
in Delray Beach. The nature center and science museum provide<br />
hands-on learning experiences focusing on Florida’s fragile ecosystems<br />
and their inhabitants.<br />
Next year’s Muscle on the Beach is tentatively scheduled for<br />
Saturday, March 8, 2025. However, at the time of going to press,<br />
they were still waiting for final approval from the city. Mark your<br />
calendars and rev your engines!
