It comes from what is probably the coolest era in Chrysler's history. At the turn of the millennium, a number of cooler ones were created under the direction of Daimler Retro Carsthat many fans didn't even dare to dream of at the time. In addition to civilian vehicles with a vintage look, such as the Chrysler PT Cruiser or the Chrysler Crossfire, there was also the crazy hot rod with free-standing front wheels called Plymouth prowler. This model, with the end of production also the Plymouth brand, shocked the professional world and fans alike. Critics were speechless about the design, and car fans could not believe that in such a vehicle, which has all the facilities for an upcoming classic, a weak-chested one V6 was installed. Because it only generated the performance of a mid-range car with great difficulty.
Yellow bullet with rarity!
But a resourceful tuner from the USA changed the condition of the engine and turned the Neo-Hot-Rod into a true sports car that would make car fans mouth watering. We will now introduce this to you in more detail. He looks like an aggressive insect, the modified Plymouth Prowler, the big one honeycomb grill got donated. the Air scoop, which is also not series, shows the intention to give the last hot rod built more power in order to have so much power under the hood that it sits on the quarter mile does not have to embarrass.
black Five-spoke alloy wheels with a glossy black finish and star design, the copy was also included, but we're not sure if that was a good choice. From our point of view, chrome rims with a glossy look go a little better with the vehicle than rims, which can often be seen on a Golf GTI or a three-seater BMW. No matter… The black and yellow combination reminds us of Maya the bee and looks good on the hot rod. According to our information, the chassis has not been changed, but that would be a Herculean task due to the unique design of a Prowler.
For this was a 3-inch exhaust system built with two tailpipes, which should provide a sporty sound. Last but not least, there was another powder coating carried out on the front suspension in order to put it in the limelight.
Everything has remained standard in the interior!
The interior may not fit a modern hot rod at all, as it has the typical American plastic desert flair that prevailed in many US cars at the turn of the millennium. A cockpit with a feel-good factor definitely looks different!
HEMI-V8 drives the classic
The drive takes over in this Prowler 6,1 liter HEMI V8that is powered by gasoline and for which electrification is a foreign concept. It is a naturally aspirated engine that does not require a turbocharger.
Even so, the performance of 425 HP and the maximum torque of 570 Newton meters not from bad parents, and only makes sure of that 1.360 kg. heavy Plymouth achieved breathtaking performance. One drawback, however, is the antiquated one Four-stage automaticwhich, however, has at least a manual intervention function. A Manual transmission with six forward gears would be more suitable for the driving machine in our opinion. After all, they will Rear wheels powered, and it's not a front scraper.
Our Conclusion to the Plymouth Prowler:
Taste is discussable! The technical modifications are great, but the look with the bright paintwork takes a lot of getting used to! Incidentally, the vehicle is currently on the auction platform Bring a trailer auctioned in the USA. The current highest bid is included 32.000 US Dollars!
