For Sale: 1997 Plymouth Prowler in Concord, North Carolina

When it comes to late-model hot rods, no car embodies old-school cool like this 1997 Plymouth Prowler with Prowler Trailer. This one-owner car has a shockingly low 1,675 miles on its odometer and is one of less than 400 units made available for retail sales in the Prowler's debut year. The Purple Metallic original paint that adorns these head-turning original body panels and matching trailer looks almost as good as the day it rolled off of the assembly line, regardless of whether its black manual convertible top is up or down.

Inside, we find a stock black leather interior that features a five-pod white-faced gauge cluster mid-mounted on the dashboard, with the loan exception of the 7,000 RPM tach mounted on the steering column to allow you to keep your eyes on the road and still click off a perfect 1-2 shift. But don't let the Prowler's throwback vibe fool you. This car comes complete with all the modern amenities hot rodders could have only dreamt of back in hot rodding's heyday. Power brakes, power steering, air conditioning, cruise control, power windows, locks, and mirrors allow this wild ride to be easily driven across town or the country.

Under the sleek triangular hood, we find an original 24-valve, 3.5-liter single-overhead cam V-6 engine borrowed from Chrysler's LH car lineup in the mid-to-late 1990s. Making 215 horsepower at 5,850 RPM and 221 pound-feet of torque at a low 3,100 RPM, the Prowler used a nifty rear-mounted, four-speed semi-automatic AutoStick transaxle that uses a variation of a torque tube to allow the Prowler to achieve perfect 50/50 front/rear weight distribution.
