Owner’s Insight

I purchased my 64 about a year ago, October 2011 from a seller in New Hampshire.  As you can see the car was in need of some TLC.  So I began my online home work here in Kuwait City where I work as a Contractor.  Around June of 2012 I had meeting with Dan where he walked me through the shop and explained what he provides and what he expects from the customer.  What I like about DRS FantomWorks is before I even had the privilege to sit down and talk to Dan is the online web site.  It walks you through different car restorations, site is professional and if you’ve ever had a classic car restored you know the importance of having it done right and left in trust worthy hands.  You get all this and more with DRS.  I also own a 63 Impala 2 Door Hard Top with a 283 engine.  My Father owned a 59 Impala Convertible Red and White.  Now that I ’m in my mid 40′s, I share the same passion that my Father had building and driving Chevy’s, I love impala’s and always will.

Vehicle Information:

The Chevrolet Impala is a full-size automobile built by the Chevrolet division of General Motors introduced for the 1958 model year. Deriving its name from the southern African antelope, Chevrolet’s most expensive passenger model through 1965 had become the best-selling automobile in the United States, competing against the Ford Galaxie 500 and the Plymouth Fury when full-size models dominated the market. The Impala was distinguished for many years by its symmetrical triple taillights. The Caprice was introduced as a top-line Impala Sport Sedan for the 1965 model year becoming a separate series positioned above the Impala in 1966, which itself remained above the Bel Air and Biscayne. The Impala continued as Chevrolet’s most popular full-size model through the mid-1980′s. Between 1994 and 1996, Impala was revived as a muscular 5.7-liter V8–powered version of the Caprice Classic sedan. In 2000, the Impala was re-introduced again as a mainstream front-wheel drive full-size sedan.
