About Us

The Swope's Cars of Yesteryear Museum features vehicles spanning multiple eras of automotive history in a variety of makes and models in both original condition and restored condition. After years of planning and nine months of construction, Swope`s Cars of Yesteryear opened in May 1999. The Swope collection brings together vintage and antique automobiles that celebrate the craftsmanship, innovation, and memories of motoring through the years. These are exciting automobiles that stir memories of long ago days when motoring was a fun-filled adventure. Our museum allows car fans and collectors to admire the progression of automobiles over time. Our collection includes antique cars like the 1914 Model T and the 1925 Pierce Arrow to classics like the 1969 Chevrolet Camaro and the 1956 Thunderbird. Our collection also shares automotive history beyond the museum's walls. From time to time, select vehicles are loaned to other museums for historical exhibitions or participate in photography and film productions. The vehicles featured on this website represent a selection of the collection, and the automobiles on display may change. Not only do we have a great display of our collection for public viewing, but we also sell antique cars for the more passionate collectors. The Swope Auto Museum is a great place to bring the family and take a step back in time to remember the cars of yesteryear. Visit us at 1080 North Dixie Avenue today!
