Plymouth Prowler

Totally impractical car for anything other than car shows but for some reason I would consider driving one just not yellow.

Can make crazy hp with some bolt on equipment. Helps that the car weighs 1500#s

The car weighs 2800lbs. That's a few hundred pounds heavier than my 5-door car that I drive every day.

And the Prowler is automatic only... Who drives an automatic?

I'm guessing he thinks it a Slingshot. ?

Maybe the one I saw at Englishtown (RIP) circa 2006? was super stripped down. He claimed the car was 1500lbs (i guess not) he ran 11 and change if I remember correctly. I remember it being fast and he destroyed the driver in the other lane of the line.

Nice 67 GT350...I always found it funny that in 67 the gt350 had a 306hp 289, in 68 they switched to a 250hp 302. Looks alot like this car that sold for 285k

Also funny is the guy who invented that supercharger moved the London bridge to lake havasu

Paint looked better from 10ft. Chrome was a little rusty. No info on what was under the hood, but assuming it was a slant 6. Interior needed a little bit of love too.

Slant 6?? That was a Chrysler thing. Guessing from the V on the hood it should be a V-8 265 CI.

interested as to what they are asking for this car...its a bel-air post as opposed to a 210, probably worth some decent coin if its solid.

Riding around the lake I spotted this daily driver.

Thats something pretty special to see.....they are rather forgotten about cars compared to the Mclaren F1, but they were pretty awesome...all carbon, 450hp v12, 2300lbs

Yeah, they really came out a few years too-early, which is kind of weird.

Slowly rolling in

Did someone say Slingshot?!!

Half car half motorcycle. This one has some nice LED features and the picture doesn’t do the pearl paint metallic shimmer justice. Man would I love to rip around in this thing.

 

[ekuhn]

Tucked away.

 

[iman29]

The wheels make the car otherwise it’s nothing special. Love the dark burgundy color.
