Vehicle Description
Want to turn your driveway into a mini SEMA show? This 1999
Plymouth Prowler has been customized over every square inch with
top-of-the-line Harley Davidson matte black paint to be like no
other car you've seen before. Add in some cool pinstripe work,
Lambo doors, and those smoked lenses, and the result is the most
dynamic Prowler on the market. So while it's a speed machine, don't
be surprised if you're driving slow because crowds have gathered
around it to take a closer peek.
It all starts with the body on this one. Coat after coat of Harley
Davidson flat black paint was applied over the factory bodywork,
and the result is a high-end finish with nary a blemish to speak
of. Custom red pinstripe work in a few subtle spots does just
enough to off-set all that black finish, and consequently helps it
pop that much more. And if you like the paint as much as we do,
you'll love to know there is a custom color-matched soft-top that
was recently installed for the car, too. And while that's part of
the terrific first impression, it's far from the only piece to get
upgraded. Those odd-looking federally mandated bumpers have
disappeared up front, giving the car a very smooth front end that
was the point of the original Prowler design before the government
stepped in, and out back the bumpers were painted to match the body
for a cohesive look. Up front you'll also see a custom billet
grille, those aforementioned smoked headlights, and terrific chrome
and polished additions to the suspension. Plus, the Prowler's
intimidating stance has been amplified by adding custom, one-off
'Moon Eyes' wheel covers that give this modern classic a vintage
Mad Max look that we absolutely love.
When you open the factory handles, you'll instantly see that this
Prowler has been custom fitted with Lamborghini-style door hinges
for the coolest entry way into a car ever invented. And as a plus,
they give you an even better view of the custom interior. The black
leather seats are stitched with red thread to match the exterior
look, and the suede inserts feel great and add a touch of luxury
inside. Of course, everything was standard in Plymouth's flagship,
from A/C and power windows/locks to keyless entry and a massive
sound system that fills the cabin with sound via Double Din
multimedia player that was custom fit into the middle console.
Retro styling cues include the center-mounted instrument panel that
has a color-matched matte bezel that looks especially dramatic, and
the 3-spoke steering wheel is full of modern features. The idea is
that this is an OEM hot rod with everything fully engineered for
the modern world and fully functional, and it just works. Airbags,
seatbelts, and all the bells and whistles truly make the Prowler a
no-compromises hot rod. There's even a brand new snug-fitting
convertible top with a clear rear window and defroster that stashes
below the rear deck for a truly sleek look. With those giant rear
tires, there's not a lot of trunk space but does it really matter
when the car looks this good?
Chrysler's corporate 3.5 liter 24-valve V6 with factory-rated 253
horsepower is a snug fit in the pointed engine bay, but given the
car's lightweight structure, it delivers entertaining performance.
And this one has been kicked up a notch, with re-mapped computer,
K&N high-flow intake, and BDO headers and racing exhaust
providing extra horses and a throaty soundtrack. Packed in there
are all the factory bells and whistles plus fuel injection and
distributorless ignition, so it always stars and runs, and fuel
economy is impressive if you stay out of the loud pedal. The
4-speed automatic transmission was the first installation of
Chrysler's "Auto Stick" setup, which allows manual shifting on the
fly, and the all-independent suspension soaks up bumps better than
any buggy spring setup ever could. Four-wheel discs with ABS are
confidence-inspiring. Finishing off the look are those awesome
'Moon Eyes' wheel covers, and they adorn a set of big-and-little
Goodyear radials with plenty of tread left.
Those of you who watch the auctions know that custom Prowlers can
bring big bucks. So, if you've always wanted a one-of-a-kind custom
at a reasonable price, don't let this sinister Prowler slip away.
