1999 Plymouth Prowler

1999 Plymouth Prowler Convertible

For consignment, a \"retro rod\" similar to an aftermarket hot rod body being built from the ground up with all the trimmings, only this one comes to us directly from a factory, the Conner Ave factory. Only a mere 4,845 title verified miles are on this one owner, always garage kept and never having seen rain or snow car, a unique facet of automobilia from a major manufacturer. Oh, and did I mention, a matchy matchy factory trailer that emulates the rear end styling of this retro rod is included with your purchase? How\'s about that for making a scene at the local cruise in?

Exterior
Whilst using predominantly aluminum panels and adhesive to blend them together, this Prowler is in excellent condition, with no rust or fillers, all original. The panels were then coated in PXT which translates to Prowler Black. With its Indy style front wheels and suspension with added floating fenders that magically turn with the wheels, to its modern yet retro stylings, chopped drop top in black canvas with a glass rear window and defogger, and curved back trunk, you are in 1932/1999 wonderland! Sporting black front bumpers, engineered to float yet absorb a 5mph crash, they are a wonder of engineering. A few scuffs are noted on the dark argent gray front bumpers, but nothing that shouldn\'t be able to be buffed out and concealed. Keeping this throwback skate grounded are 17 and 20-inch blingy chrome 5 spoke wheels that are still wearing their factory supplied rubber. A true time capsule here.

Trailer
Many potential Prowler owners walked away when they realized their new purchase cost $40,000, but they needed to add $5,000 if they wished to carry luggage. Today, these are a \"must-have\" item for anyone considering buying a classic Prowler. The one included in this deal looks as spotless as the car itself, mimickingthe sloping rear end of the car as well as very similar tail lights mounted to the bulbous fenders. Weighing in at a flyweight 385lbs and measuring 96-inches long by 70-inches wide and 36-inches tall and having a cargo capacity of 615lbs, this greatly expands the function of the Prowler and allows for overnight trips. If storage space is a problem, the tongue of the trailer can be removed for storage, knocking the overall length down to 55-inches.

Interior
Charcoal black leather abounds with the buckets sitting proudly and in near showroom condition. These flank a center console which houses a glovebox, cupholder, and Autostick, (a shift mounted version of the Tiptronic gear shift). Keeping in tune with other earlier rods, this has a center elongated Prowler Black painted oval which houses the instruments. A/C, power windows, power locks, and the factory AM/FM/6 CD sound system are seen on the dash as well. Above the steering column is a tachometer.

Drivetrain
A 3.6 Liter V6 powers this light and nimble car, and is fuel injected. This is attached to a 4-speed automatic \"auto-stick\" with the above noted tiptronic auto gear shift actuated gearbox. A 3.89 rear axle allows you to cruise at low RPM and yet have fun when the pedal hits the metal.

Undercarriage
As expected, nothing of notability, just very slight low mileage wear and tear, but it is really at a minimum. 4-wheel power disc brakes are seen, and all else is structurally sound with the all-wheel independent coil over suspension and the factory exhaust.

Drive-Ability
My climb in and test drive revealed that there was a little \"kick\" when I pressed the gas and the car had excellent pickup and ran smoothly. It\'s definitely a head turner, and not something you see every day, even at Classic Auto Mall where we see quite a lot, and all in modern tech retro look form and turnkey LOW LOW mileage condition you may have to change the break in oil...

Presenting in all its retro harken back to the hot rod era, all in 1999 trim and technology, we have a low mileage, nice running, very clean Prowler, right out of the factory with no noodling or wrenching required by the new owner. Just get in and put a smile on your face!
