Prowler

Nicely maintained convertible Plymouth Prowler near Artisan's Supplies, great big wheels and the gorgeous purple paint caught my eye immediately. This is also the first time I've noticed the bulges behind the cab over the trunk, very attractive. 


I had the R/C version of a Prowler way back when they first came out, I thought they were the way all cars would look in the future, but poor sales shot that dream down. Too bad they never made a V8 version.

  1. Most disappointing car ever made. Only 214 horses and can't be modified because of limited engine-bay space. Lame, lame, lame. Nice looking though.

    1. Agreed, I thought this was going to be the hot rod of the future, instead it turned out to be yesterday's dud.
      I keep dreaming of someone tearing the whole hood construction out and putting a proper V8 in with the extra space.

  2. Now that would be living the dream. Turns out some folks have managed to do it already though.
