Swede Rides Customs & Classics

Swede Rides is a small town family owned dealership selling classic cars at amazingly good prices. Coming all the way from Ohio, I was concerned that the car wouldn’t be with the trip or the pictures were too good to be true. Jake was phenomenal in providing pictures, videos, and details about the 67 Coronet R/T I purchased before making the 12 hour drive out to see it in person. They did not disappoint; the car was everything they said it was at a price that was fair. They even put a brand new set of tires on as a part of the deal and coordinated shipping with my carrier for pickup. I definitely felt like I got top notch service while I was there and they didn’t hesitate at any of my requests (putting the car up on the lift, test drive, etc). If I could give them more than 5 stars I would. Thanks Jake and Mike!

Very professional and super friendly. I worked with Jake and he was very thorough and helpful. I love the Ford Fusion I purchased from them. We were able to bring the vehicle indoors as well to inspect things closer. Both service and quality surpassed expectations. Jake was very interactive and trustworthy. He has a passion for what he does, and ensures his customers are completely satisfied before they drive off the lot. I would highly recommend.

Awesome experience working with Jake at Swede's. We drove 7 1/2 hours from mid state Illinois to checkout this 66 Belvedere.
The description was accurate from their webpage and sounded even better in person!

Thanks Jake

We brought my wife's black Nissan maximum to swederides to have work done on the rear qtr panel and bumper & these guys did an amazing job, looks brand new! Great people to work with they really know their stuff! I've been to quite a few body shops around my area over the years.& have always ended up taking them back 2 or 3 times for them to get it right, these guys got it spot on the 1st time! I would recommend them to anyone.....Thnx Swederides!

I bought a used BMW X5 from Swede Rides recently, and I had a fantastic experience!! The process was fast and easy, and the car was in perfect condition and very clean!! They specialize in custom work and hot rods, but they proved they can also provide quality daily-drivers as well! I would recommend their services to anyone looking for a vehicle or for custom work.

Jake and the crew are the best. Got my second car from them. They help with everything, from finding the right car to helping find financial services. If I ever have a question they are there to help, with the small things like what all the buttons do, to what a nose might be.
Can't ask for a better group of guys.
Thank you to all the guys at Swede Rides.

I had a great experience buying a 1981 Chevy C10 pickup here a few days ago. Mike and Jake were very knowledgeable and answered all my questions. They have a nice showroom that is full of a variety of cool vehicles. I wouldn't hesitate coming here for all of your classic car needs!

We brought in our vehicle to be sold by Swede Rides and we were so impressed with the time mannerly and great costumer service. Very professional and great people to work with!

Very professional and they have a very good selection of classics and used newer cars. I would definitely recommend Swede Rides!

Unfortunately I had a terrible experience with Swedes Rides. I purchased a 1937 Ford Roadster on auction which I though was a good deal until I actually received the car and checked it out. There are multiple issues with the car i.e. it's blowing smoke, oil leaks, bad ball joint, blown rear shock, no gas cap / fill line was a small radiator hose 9with duct tape /gas leaked when filling. Found two additional fiber glass cracks, door actuators didn't work properly, speedometer doesn't work. no horn, hard top has a broken fastener, wiring is a mess, all the interior panels are not secure, back side panels fall off when driving.
My biggest issue with Swede Rides is none of these items were disclosed during the purchase process. I have made numerous attempts to reach Jake to discuss these items and he has jet to respond. If you cant be forthright with your customers you shouldn't be in business. Good luck if you purchase a vehicle from them.
