I always wondered what a prowler would look like with a stretched nose around a viper v10, and you guys happen to have one laying around (hopefully still)...
I honest to god, no joke was hoping the last time you guys did roadkill nights you would find a prowler to stuff a hellcat motor into for the event. That would have been so sick!
Your content is magnificent. Although you have blown up, popularity-wise, your content remains inherently the same - which is the way I believe most fans, including myself, likes it. Picking a Prowler is a genius move and I will watch every episode. Keep up the good work ya'll.
I have wanted one of these for so long to make something great out of it. It looks wonky but with the right body mods the thing can look SICK. Really hyped for this one, something unique for you guys!
I think you guys should. Come up with a very fast 30's 40' Roadster .look instead the preview you showed u in this video that was the prowler molded for that area farmers chop and created the original roadsters
I have said it before. This is the best channel of its kind. One of the best mechanic shop i think in USA. I. Am from Greece and I see all of your videos. The team is great All the guys are super professional. Keep up the good work
This brings me back to my shop days in the 90’s. I worked on 3-4 of these doing alarm/remote start, amps/subs/stereo stuff. I always loved the styling, but the power plant was horrible for looking like a hot rod. While it needs the sound of a V8, I think a 600-800hp K-Swap would be awesome.
A Plymouth Prowler....Throtl, this is going to be one of the sweetest builds on the channel. You just don't see these and they are so different and unique in this day. Looking forward to this build, Cheers to you guys for doing something Different👍
I worked for Dodge for just over 15 years and went to school on the prowler and on the Viper. Two great platforms, but I always said they should’ve put a bigger engine in the prowler. Really love to see what you guys are gonna do with it.
It's a bit wierd because its a concept car that wasn't really meant to be sold. It definitely looks better without the bumpers. Random suggestion I've been in a prowler and couldn't believe how bad rear visibility is. I suggest a aftermarket backup camera. If you can hide it in the body so it doesn't look terrible. The rendering looks fantastic. Just not sure about the lack of angle on the rear wing. It looks completely horizontal. Is the angle going to be adjustable?
Growler go!!!! (High RPM All Motor Hemi Swap) Maybe do something special with the exhaust to create a unique sound just for the car like some kind of an 8 -1 or tuned headers and sidepipes? The car has some super cool potential for something cool.
These sound amazing straight piped! I put a sweet thunder mid pipe on mine and it sounds like an r35. Also they’re pretty quick for 1999. They competed with the z3 and boxster and I believe it was quicker than both.
Years and years ago Titan Motorsports was working on a turbo 2JZ swapped Prowler which would have been the best one I've ever seen. If y'all could do that too I would love it!
YES! YES! YES! my 2000 Intrepid r/t had this engine, JUST started having issues last year and had to put out to pasture, its a fun little engine for the year. Loved the car, classic case of rare but not valuable. So many people had issues with the engine but I firmly believe they were just lazy with maintenance and hammered it because of the tags on the outside.
One of the coolest cars ever. I don't think there's anyone that would look at this and not smile. They were so brave for building something like this at that time. This came out at the same time as the hideous PT cruiser and the SS.
Super excited for this build. Can’t wait to see what y’all do. I’d bet money your putting the new hurricane engine in it. I’d rather see the HellCat swap but I’m game to watch any of it.
Probably one of the few cars were Lambo style door makes sense. I worked on one years ago and it shocked me how narrow the factory door openings are. The doors don't open near as far as you would think.
Very cool looking car, but the lackluster V6 and terrible automatic meant that it had zero following with anybody that actually liked cars at the time they came out.
I'm excited I don't think many of us have seen an upgraded Prowler at all. I mean I've seen a couple at car shows 20yrs ago but not on TV and hopped up it almost needs a Texas speed 408 or maybe a Hemi of some kind.
Can’t wait to see what you guys do with the car ! Excited to see what you guys turn it into. Keep up the great videos and humor that’s goes along with it!
It's nice that you took such an unusual car for the project, to be honest I've only seen this car in magazines and I never expected to see it on such a large TH-cam channel
this is 🔥. heard someone already swapped a helcat hemi into a prowlr already. The lambo door suit it nicely. 🙏 you keep the fenders of on both front and rear and turn it into like a rat rod look with the fenders off. Also big IFs is hat you swap out the convertable top for a hardtop
I've watched you guys tear down a lot of cars! It was really cool to see you guys jump head first into something so different and out of your wheel house. Can't wait to see what you guys do with this.
Nice to see one of these built right. IIRC Foose was in design of this car but GM wanted cheap down what he designed. (IE think he wanted it V*) Since they didn't let him build it the way he wanted. That's what his Hemisphere is. what he was trying to make this car more like.
This is so awesome guy, I can’t wait to see where this build goes. Also just submitted my entry for the Veterans dream car build 🤘🏼🤘🏼 keep up the amazing work guys
I’m almost certain that it’s getting that v10 viper motor tossed in, but I would love to see a cummins swapped in it 🤣 prowler rolling coal sending these LS swapped everything to gapplebees would be hilarious 🤣
I have seen a few of these but they have all looked identical. I have always wondered why no one tends to make them their own, so this should be a lesson for owners who want to be the unique owner in the crowd.
I liked that car back in the day. My only gripe is that it made so little horsepower. The looks (to me) said that it was going to be a 500+hp rocket. Can’t wait to see the end result.
The rendering looks like a stanced F1 car.😂😂 Love it! The viper's v10 or Audi RS(5Cylinder motor) would add to the quirkiness of this car. But I'm sure you folks are going to sticka USDM V8 in it.❤
The Plymouth prowler literally looks exactly like a PT cruiser with no fenders, they just narrowed it more and squished it down😂 No hate here I’m honestly stoked to see what u guys do to it
These are the kinds of builds I love watching. Taking a neglected or broken car and making it awesome. I don't like the builds where y'all take an immaculate car that's been fastidiously cared for and butcher the hell out of it... I'm really looking forward to the 300zx build if it ever happens.
Man that thing is much wilder and weirder then i ever would have expected. like they really had to spend some time developing all that. cant be many OEM cars with cantilever suspension setups stock. and its not like they could use a vette or something being a plymouth. they must have been expensive new back in the day!
Always thought this car would be a good platform for something original. A nice engine paired with a manual gearbox and an overall slick and tastefull style
A buddy of mine worked at Chrysler when they were designing the Prowler and he helped spec the materials used for it. The design team was hell bent on using the V6 because it was the most modern engine they had. Of course that meant splitting the transaxle that was used in the LHS at the time and moving it to the back. The transaxle engineering team freaked because it was never designed to be run separately from the engine. My buddy asked why don't you use the I-6 4.2L engine from the Jeeps and put a supercharger on it? They said it wasn't modern enough, even though it would have been much easier to fit into the design of the vehicle and would give them many more options for transmissions (manual being one of them), plus it would have had a trunk.
Actually really looking forward to this build. These cars have always caught my eye because they are just funky enough to be cool if done right. Hellcat or Viper engine swap??
I always liked the vibe of the Prowler, glad to see someone doing something crazy with it and I know you folks can pull it off. Yer gon make me buy one. xD
These have always been one of my favourite looking American cars, one of the best retro cars to come out of the whole retro styling of the late 90s early noughties. Be legal to import here and leave as lhd in a year or two as well. What are they worth these days?
Guys, just an idea after watching this video, you showed white walls behind the Civic, Eclipse and Supra, what is missing is the Paul Walker's Skyline and on the wall, put possibly "In tribute to Paul Walker RIP " Just an idea 👍
I always thought this was such a cool car when it came out in 99 and they always stole the car shows. Then I learned that they weren't the best in design, but I think its super cool that you guys are putting the Throtl touch on this. Cant wait to see your plans!
I always wondered what a prowler would look like with a stretched nose around a viper v10, and you guys happen to have one laying around (hopefully still)...
Hell yeah, been wanting to see someone do something cool with a Prowler
I agree, def outside the box with this one,
👏🏾👏👏🏾👏👏🏾👏👏🏾👏👏🏾👏👏🏾
I wanted one of those so bad when they came out when I was younger...I still love the way they look!
THIS is what sets builders (especially YTers) apart from the typically overdone builds! REALLY looking forward to this series!
Prowlers are one of those cars that when they are outside, you see and notice them... Especially in their factory purple color.
Great job with the Viper in the background. If you have the engine from that thing, throw it in the Prowler!!!!
The Prowler was so cool to see driving around when I was a kid. Yooooooo this is gonna be sick!!
This is gonna be cool. I’ve always liked the prowler.
Can't imagine Throtl without this two hard working guys Rickie & Quinn! They're the heart & soul of this channel! ❤️🎉👏👏👏
I honest to god, no joke was hoping the last time you guys did roadkill nights you would find a prowler to stuff a hellcat motor into for the event. That would have been so sick!
Can't wait to see all that's ahead with this one! These cars are definitely unique, but I'm sure with some Throtl love it will be out of this world!

Same here..when they first came out I was amazed at the look of the car and fell in love immediately..ive always wanted one of those
I think you guys should. Come up with a very fast 30's 40' Roadster .look instead the preview you showed u in this video that was the prowler molded for that area farmers chop and created the original roadsters
With a very modern touch
Gotta admit the team feels incomplete. Where’s Will?
He’s not listed as a team members on the website…hopefully he didn’t leave..
@@Dsspeedshoppeople come and go at companies.
Man i forgot about will
Will got let go they caught him taking small parts from the shop

I always thought the prowler could look badass, just needs the right people to do it. I think she’s in good hands here. Can’t wait to see what’s next!
If it's got a big ol exposed V8 and side pipes I'll be happy. I love seeing restomod hotrods, trying to find the time to work on one myself.
These sound amazing straight piped! I put a sweet thunder mid pipe on mine and it sounds like an r35. Also they’re pretty quick for 1999. They competed with the z3 and boxster and I believe it was quicker than both.

Be sure to check the frame for cracks, I seem remember they recalled some of them for bad frames or welds or something.

thats what it came with.

Love seeing Mopars on the channel 🙌 the Prowler was a childhood favorite.
This build has me pretty hyped up. Wasn’t expecting this one, but I’m grateful to see it!
I'm I the only one that thinks the prowler is a aesthetically underrated?
Very cool looking car, but the lackluster V6 and terrible automatic meant that it had zero following with anybody that actually liked cars at the time they came out.
@@jameswalradt7378 totally agree. Performance never matched aesthetics. Thankful there are still some willing to do it justice
So stoked for this! I ve been wanting to do this for years! 😫🤩 Just let me join the team 🙄
I'm excited I don't think many of us have seen an upgraded Prowler at all. I mean I've seen a couple at car shows 20yrs ago but not on TV and hopped up it almost needs a Texas speed 408 or maybe a Hemi of some kind.
Nice video. Now, let's start the 300zx build❤
I used to have a prowler. Can’t wait to see what you guys do with this! 🙌🏼
Render looks good except for the wing, the wing has to go.
The front and rear looked horrible in the render. Huge rice wings are cringe afffffffffff
Almost all the builds are like that, with some goofy huge wing.
Wow, what a perfect car to do! These things are in desperate need of some power. I can't wait to see what you guys do to it.
Can’t wait to see what you guys do with the car ! Excited to see what you guys turn it into. Keep up the great videos and humor that’s goes along with it!
Its crazy i saw a prowler on the road yesterday while i was driving home. Surprised to see this video come out today
It's nice that you took such an unusual car for the project, to be honest I've only seen this car in magazines and I never expected to see it on such a large TH-cam channel

Always liked the Prowler. The doors are a nice touch. Would be cool having one with a good motor and auto trans to just enjoy.
V8 most likely but considering the small engine bay and the lack of a transmission tunnel it’s going to be a torque tube set up.
Where's that other guy who was always doing the electrical?
This is going to be awesome! Excited about this build. Weird car choice, AB’s that’s why I like it! My son and I watching from NC
Always like the Prowler simply for the fact that it's kind of crazy Plymouth made it to begin with. Excited to see how this turns out.
Please tell me the Viper V10 is going in this thing.
Love the way that this car looks. I really wish you could do a modern interior and dashboard, please 🙏
Have to put that viper motor somewhere..this is gonna be soooo sick!! Let's goooo!!
Ive always loved the Prowler, one of my dream cars since I was younger!
This car is still cool as hell. This many years later.
I've never seen a more underground looking car like that in awhile beautiful prowlers
I've watched you guys tear down a lot of cars! It was really cool to see you guys jump head first into something so different and out of your wheel house. Can't wait to see what you guys do with this.
Nice to FINALLY see an American car getting some love on your channel.

This is so awesome guy, I can’t wait to see where this build goes. Also just submitted my entry for the Veterans dream car build 🤘🏼🤘🏼 keep up the amazing work guys
I think an LS or a JZ would be awesome to swap into the Prowler.
My Dad has a Prowler. I cannot wait to see what you guys do to this. This is going to be an INSANE Build!! Lets goooooo!
I’m almost certain that it’s getting that v10 viper motor tossed in, but I would love to see a cummins swapped in it 🤣 prowler rolling coal sending these LS swapped everything to gapplebees would be hilarious 🤣
I knew I couldnt be the only one thinking about that v10 lmao
I have seen a few of these but they have all looked identical. I have always wondered why no one tends to make them their own, so this should be a lesson for owners who want to be the unique owner in the crowd.
Sweet! I remember when they came out. My step-dad worked for Chrysler at the time. Also, WEIRDER. 😉
Video just started. So I dont know what's going in it. Hoping the viper v10.
An SRT4 powerplant would help keep it lightweight and well-balanced, but a new HurriCrate 6 would be nasty. ALLLLL the torqueses, my precious.
I liked that car back in the day. My only gripe is that it made so little horsepower. The looks (to me) said that it was going to be a 500+hp rocket. Can’t wait to see the end result.

I actually love this car for the old school hot rod design. So I’m stoked to see what this thing turns out to be
The dreaded immobilizer module(SKIM).
These are the kinds of builds I love watching. Taking a neglected or broken car and making it awesome.
I don't like the builds where y'all take an immaculate car that's been fastidiously cared for and butcher the hell out of it...
I'm really looking forward to the 300zx build if it ever happens.
Picked up an exhaust kit from you guys, unreal shipping speed thx!!
Hellcat engine? Turbo K24? Aluminator? 3 rotor? LT4 with corvette rear mounted trans?
Man that thing is much wilder and weirder then i ever would have expected. like they really had to spend some time developing all that. cant be many OEM cars with cantilever suspension setups stock. and its not like they could use a vette or something being a plymouth. they must have been expensive new back in the day!

This got you guys a sub. Had a pic of this on my wall in 99' before i knew about anything mechanical
I’ve always loved these cars, but they need a different power plant. Look up the Plymouth Howler concept.
A buddy of mine worked at Chrysler when they were designing the Prowler and he helped spec the materials used for it. The design team was hell bent on using the V6 because it was the most modern engine they had. Of course that meant splitting the transaxle that was used in the LHS at the time and moving it to the back.

They said it wasn't modern enough, even though it would have been much easier to fit into the design of the vehicle and would give them many more options for transmissions (manual being one of them), plus it would have had a trunk.
The Prowler deserved at least a V8 option from the factory. They went wild on the design, and lackluster on the drivetrain.
I’m actually proud, no more typical cars 🙏🏽💯
You guys still got that Viper V10 laying around? That’d be the perfect engine for this! And it would stay true to the Mopar theme.
Stoked about what you guys have planned for the prowler, great video!
Actually really looking forward to this build. These cars have always caught my eye because they are just funky enough to be cool if done right. Hellcat or Viper engine swap??
I always liked the vibe of the Prowler, glad to see someone doing something crazy with it and I know you folks can pull it off. Yer gon make me buy one. xD
Hell yes a Prowler! I’ve always wanted to see one modded well.
These have always been one of my favourite looking American cars, one of the best retro cars to come out of the whole retro styling of the late 90s early noughties.
Be legal to import here and leave as lhd in a year or two as well.
What are they worth these days?
This is crazy, it looks nice as hell
Prowler were sick back in the day. Weight to power ratio should be nice, like an Ariel Atom.
Guys, just an idea after watching this video, you showed white walls behind the Civic, Eclipse and Supra, what is missing is the Paul Walker's Skyline and on the wall, put possibly "In tribute to Paul Walker RIP "
Just an idea 👍
I’m loving that fast and furious eclipse in the background
I used to love those cars when i was younger. Always wondered what motor it had. A built turbo k20 would make that a monster lol
I never thought I'd say this but an all black out Prowler is actually kind of cool looking.
This project is one of a kind, curious to see the following!
First Prowler build series ever. Should be interesting
I always thought this was such a cool car when it came out in 99 and they always stole the car shows. Then I learned that they weren't the best in design, but I think its super cool that you guys are putting the Throtl touch on this. Cant wait to see your plans!
$20 says the starter switch actuator pin is broken on the steering column. Not an uncommon failure on 90s Chrysler products.
hands down this is the most unique build idea ive seen in a while.
