The worst experience to date. We finally saved enough $$ to purchase our dream muscle car, a 1970…read moreChevelle. Took it to Custom Dream Rides to go thru it and suggest replacement parts and upgrades. This included new headlights, wiring, heater coil, new rotors, brake pads and new tires. Gave Greg, the owner, money up front to order parts. He gladly took and cashed the $4,000 and kept putting us off saying the parts hadn't been delivered yet. Finally, after 2 weeks of waiting, WE drove 6 hours to Ocala to pick up our parts. They were NEVER ordered OR PAID FOR! So we had to pay, again for our parts, which was credited off our bill, the owner said he ran into financial issues and used our money else where. WOW, bad business and infuriating to say the least! Another week passes, car is FINALLY ready for pick up. Got it home, cleaned up and went cruising. Picked up another couple and got onto a major highway to open it up. Exited the highway and started hearing a clunking noise, the left driver side tire went flying off! Thank GOD that did not happen on the highway or that the tire didn't crash into another vehicle! We were so lucky none of us got injured or killed. The police and Tow truck came and we discover that NONE OF THE LUG NUTS WERE TORQUED! Towed the car back to Custom Dream Rides where Greg swears the lugs were torqued, which I have a video showing the tow truck driver taking them off without any pressure. The rotor was shot and the fender was bent, but no other damage to the car. Greg said he would take care of it no charge. He also said that what happened was that they put on the original lug nuts, but they were not the proper size. Which is infuriating since we took our car there because that's what they specialize in, they should have caught that when replacing rotors and putting on new tires! So.....3 weeks LATER and unable to match the color of our car, he finally takes the frame of the headlights to PPG so they can match the color. Mind you, we had our car for 5 days, Custom Dream Rides....2 months! WE finally have our car back, paint job is good, other than we now have a few new small dents and looks like something fell on our car while there and they touched it up with an off color paint! I REFUSE to go back. If I could rate this business a -10, I would. The worse experience with a business that I have EVER encountered and extremely disappointed. STAY AWAY!
