The car owner was very easy to work with. We appreciated his willingness to be flexible with pick up and drop off times due to inclement weather. He was always responsive to messages and just an all around super nice guy. The car was clean and in top condition. It was beautiful and served the purpose for our reason for renting, my daughter’s wedding. We would most definitely rent from him again.

We could not have asked for a better experience! The car was beautiful, clean, and perfect for our engagement shoot. Dale was so easy to work with and great at communicating. Truly a 5 star experience!

I'm so grateful to have met Dale and had the opportunity to drive his beautiful 1956 Ford Thunderbird for my fiancée and I engagement photo shoot. The vehicle was exactly what we wanted. Super clean, well-maintained, and a stunning piece of art. Dale was nothing but kind, friendly, and very professional. You could tell the pension Dale got when it's come to his vehicle. Dale, I thank you for helping us use your vehicle to create a memorable moment that we will cherish forever.

The car was perfect! Dale was easy to work with and takes spectacular care of his cars. I would definitely recommend renting off him!

Spoke with Dale over a year ago and booked a weekend in his 56’ Thunderbird. Had to cancel and the next year we were able to make it work. Dale was the perfect host before we even picked up the car all the way until we returned it. He treated us like family and not someone who was renting one of his classic cars. The t-bird was phenomenal and we turned heads everywhere we went pretending that sweet ride was ours rolling through the Kentucky countryside. We got pretty good at it. The car itself was in perfect condition and ride was great, and it was everything we imagined it was going to be except having to dodge a few rain storms. We look forward to trying another experience through Dale or Driveshare in the future. Thanks again Dale!

What a beautiful and fun car. We had an amazing day touring around the countryside with this old beauty. Dale was great and his route recommendation was the best.
