1962 Impala SS

 

 The 1962 Impala has for a long time been one of the most widly used cars in the United States. Mainly because it came in so many different options. In every model year of its production it has come with more than three different engine options. In one of those years it came with ten different engine options. With that many different options, its no wonder why the Cheverolet Impala is such an important car in the classic car era.

The owner of this Impala came to FantomWorks because he wanted to have peace of mind knowing that it was going to be restored with the utmost diligence. It being his father’s car when he was a boy, meant that this car had more than just monetary value, it had unmatchable sentimental value; therefore our team was ready to give the owner one restoration that would make him remember those long drives to wherever with his father. Below are some pictures provided by the owner of him, his father, and the 1962 impala.
