‘64 Chevy™ Impala

Lowrider 2’ N 1

The Impala was Chevrolet’s flagship full-size car for 1964, and it fulfilled the role well. The Impala line was an outstanding seller
for Chevrolet in the early sixties- in 1964, Chevrolet made about 889,600 Impalas, 185,325 of which were SS models. The Impala’s
image had matured gracefully since the nameplate’s introduction in 1958, and the crisp, formal styling of the ‘64 Impalas fit this
image well. The popular Super Sport option, which included unique body trim and wheel covers, added $161 to the $2786 base
price of a V-8 powered Impala Sport Coupe. The SS package could be had on either the hard- top
coupe or convertible, with 6 cylinder or V-8 power.
The 1964 Impala was a definite success with the general car-buying public when it was first
introduced, but over the years it has gained cult status as the car of choice among
lowrider enthusiasts. ‘64 Impalas are arguably the most popular “start­ing points” for lowrider builders, much like ‘32 Fords are to hot
rodders and ‘49-51 Mercuries are to customizers.
Your Revell 2 ‘n 1 kit is an accurate replica of this classic
Chevy. All parts to build an accurate stock version are included,
along with lowrider parts like trunk mounted batteries and pumps, wire
wheels, chain link steering wheel, and hydraulic switch box are includ- ed. The
suspension may be built in several different settings, enabling you to choose your own
lowrider stance. Whether you choose to build your model factory stock or as a lowrider, you’re
sure to have a winner!
