Can you imagine a hot rod being produced by a mainstream automaker, as a factory offering, and in 1997? Well, that’s what Chrysler did with the Prowler. In a rare show of creativity, Chrysler gave its engineers free reign to create a 1930s-inspired hot rod for the modern era. Just 11,702 units were made over a five-year production run, making the Prowler quite rare indeed. Today, we’ve got a 1999 Plymouth Prowler from Missouri for sale. This car has just 12,345 miles on the clock, and you can make it your own if you wish. The Prowler’s interesting design and limited production numbers mean that it’s definitely a future classic, so you’d best skip the rush that will come in the future, and get your hands on this one ASAP.
This 1999 Plymouth Prowler wears a custom yellow paint job with flame designs, giving it quite a hot rod vibe – if the jaw-dropping design doesn’t already do it for you. After all, where else can you find a car with exposed front wheels and visible front suspension like an Indy or Formula 1 racer? Then, you’ve got a long, low stance, minimal bumpers and of course, an open passenger cabin. Fear not the elements, though, because there’s a manually operated soft top for use when the weather turns disagreeable. The passenger cabin of this 1999 Plymouth Prowler comes in black, and like the exterior, draws much inspiration from the past. You’ve got a dashboard in body color with the gauges mounted in pods. Then, you’ll find the tachometer to be externally mounted, sitting atop the steering column. However, there are plenty of Nineties creature comforts as well, that you wouldn’t have found in a ʼ30s car. These include air conditioning, a radio cassette tape player, and a proper speaker system.
You might expect this 1999 Plymouth Prowler to have a V8 under the hood, and that’s where Plymouth’s engineers may have slightly fallen behind. You see, the Prowler has a 3.5-liter V6 as standard, which reportedly makes a still-healthy 253 horsepower. It’s rear-wheel drive, and this car uses a 4-speed automatic transmission with Autostick manual mode available. However, there’s still plenty of performance on tap to thrill.

Few cars captured the spirit of 1990s automotive experimentation quite like the Plymouth Prowler. With its retro-inspired hot rod styling and modern engineering, it became one of the most unique production vehicles of its era. This 1999 example, offered from Nevada, Missouri, is finished in Prowler Red with an Agate leather interior and shows just 7,000 miles from new. With its low mileage and factory originality, it represents a rare opportunity to own a near-pristine first-year Prowler.

It isn't often that a team of designers is asked to use their creativity without any restrictions, but that is precisely the instructions Chrysler had given their team. The only request was that the vehicle was supposed to take its inspiration from hot rods that were famous during the 30s. So, under the instruction of Thomas C. Gale, the Prowler came to life, and it became the show-stopper car after the legendary Dodge Viper. Only 11,702 Prowlers were made, making it a collector's item. This specific example may as well fall under the brand-new category, as it is reported to have just 83 original miles.
Plymouth is one of the oldest American automotive brands, with a rich history that can be traced back to 1928. Founded by Walter Chrysler, Plymouth was intended to be Chrysler Corporation’s low-cost brand in a burgeoning American auto market. However, it quickly transcended boundaries, giving us some greats like the Barracuda, Road Runner and more. Sadly, this great brand bid goodbye to us in June 2001. Having said that, you can still find plenty of Plymouth cars for sale from all eras. This particular 1931 Plymouth PA Coupe Street Rod is interesting because it’s one of their earliest efforts, albeit extensively resto-modded into a fine street rod. Up for grabs in Lubbock, this 7,751-mile machine boasts a 327ci V8, a 4-speed autobox, a custom paint job and an uncanny ability to raise eyebrows, turn heads and garner smiles of appreciation. Yes, it’s a car that no-one can find a reason to hate on, basically. Now isn’t that worthy of acquisition?
Immortalized in print and on screen, the Plymouth Fury was famous for its role as killer possessed car Christine in Steven King’s thriller novel, as well as the movie of the same name. This was in fact a 1958 two-door model, which is far removed from today’s 1966 Plymouth Fury, so don’t worry, this car isn’t likely to ambush you. In fact, it offers you a superb period driving experience, allowing you to experience a full-size four-door Plymouth and see what this iconic American brand could provide. Today’s example has under 18,000 miles on it and hails from Chandler, Arizona. Give us a call if you’re interested.
Beep Beep! Move over, it’s the Road Runner! Named after the lovable Warner Brothers character from the Wile E. Coyote and Road Runner cartoons, Plymouth reportedly paid $50,000 to Warner Brothers for the right to use the Road Runner name and likeness. They spent a further $10,000 on development of a signature “Beep Beep” horn as well! Needless to say, the Road Runner was a massive success and remains one of America’s most loved muscle cars to this day. Now, we have a chance for one lucky enthusiast to get their hands on a massively upgraded 1970 Plymouth Road Runner Restomod from Milford, Pennsylvania. With its 440ci V8, Tremec TK500 5-speed manual transmission and Holley Six Pack Tri-Power system, this is one speedy car!
The Ford Thunderbird was made between 1955 and 1997 across ten generations, and redefined the Personal Luxury Car for Americans. In fact, it created the segment, largely inspired by the Grand Tourers of Europe. So, in the 2000s, Ford was feeling a little misty eyed and decided to create a rose-tinted eleventh generation homage to this iconic nameplate. Enter the retro-modern Thunderbird that was made between 2002 and 2005. Styled by Jack Telnack, the car sat on the Ford DEW98 platform, used an engine from Jaguar (who Ford owned at the time), and marked a return to roots of sorts, in that it was a two-seater, just like the first generation. Over 68,000 examples were made, and we have one for sale. Say hello to this original owner, all-stock 2002 Ford Thunderbird from South Jordan, Utah, that’s got just 13,085 miles on the clock.
Mercedes-Benz and its lineup of SLs have always been and will be iconic; the automotive marque's pinnacle open-top grand tourer has been the car to have for eons when you want to experience authentic open-top motoring.
