Currently operating from a single location in Kennedale, Texas (714 E KENNEDALE PKWY SUITE B1, KENNEDALE TX 76060), they offer a diverse range of European and American cars, with over 50 in physical inventory and online options.
While American Muscle Autos successfully sells various cars, Franklin aspires to sell more American muscle cars – Dodge Challengers, Ford Mustangs, and Chevrolet Camaros – which embody the company’s spirit.

Franklin acknowledges the hectic nature of the auto industry.
To stay on top of trends and cater to customer demands, he networks with other professionals, utilizes social media like TikTok and Instagram, and actively participates in trade shows and auctions.
