My guess is that someone started a thread on this in the past, but I can find it. I searched on Strangest and Weirdest but all I found was a hotly debated topic that I’m not about to bring back up.

So for me it was just a few weeks ago. I was on a 2 lane road coming up to a light. A van I had passed shortly after the previous light was coming up in the left turn lane very slowly. The next thing I know even though I’m 8 cars back from the light and he’s the only one in the turn lane, he stops next to me. I look up at the passenger and he’s smiling from ear-to-ear saying something in what I believe was Russian. Then the driver is running out of his vehicle (now blocking the left turn lane even though the light is green) with a camera. He motions that he would like to take a picture. I nod yes, but I’m in a hurry as I’m off to pick up my car cover and I may not make it before they close. He takes the picture and all returns to normal.

Personally, I thought that was a little strange, but I’m sure there are stranger …

Three days after taking delivery of my Kat, I was cruising near the local university campus. From out of nowhere a local officer of the law (riding a motorcycle) lights 'em up and pulls me over.

He gets off his bike, approaches the car and says, "I should give you a speeding ticket just for the way that car looks."

He started smiling and then I realized he only wanted to look at the car. It made for a good laugh. Since them I've seen him on patrol a couple of times and he always waves and smiles...eventhough I don't have a license plate attached to the front (as required by law).

With my Black-Tie, a guy runs up to me as I am getting out and yells, "What is that?"

"It's a Plymouth Prowler!", I say.

"Who makes it?", he responds.

Ummmmm, ford?

The first day I picked my Prowler up from the dealer I was driving back going down the highway about 65mph and this
car passes me on the left and this woman is hanging out her
window at 65mph taking a picture of the car.

Another time a car traveling the opposite direction took a
picture while passing me. The only problem was he was also driving at the sametime.

A back massage from a "famous person".
I was cruising around The Pier in downtown St Petersburg on a Saturday night. Some big festival was going on with a lot of big name bands, crowds of people everywhere. As I began driving on the pier I was stopped by a security guard.
He says "May I ask you a question?
"Sure."
"Are you somebody famous?"
I had to smile and hope that that was not my fifteen minutes of fame.

I stopped at a gas station in Sylmar, CA. and the guy next to me proceeds to ask me for directions. I look up and it's Peter Fonda. I gave him the directions he was looking for, shook his hand and then he asks me how I liked my Prowler. I said I liked it alot. He wished me a nice evening and we were off! Wow!

I was sitting at a local car show last Saturday and an older gentleman walked over to the Kat and said "Nice car, what did it used to be?"

A guy followed me 3 miles off the main road and through my Daughters twisty neigborhood just to get a look a the Kat. Another guy jumped out of his car at a traffic light yelling OH MY GOD. The worst that ever happened was a guy driving a pickup was watching me go by and not watching the road in front of him. He T boned a car coming out of a parking lot.

Driving at the end of the line up on the way to one of the runs this past year, 30 plus Kat's in a row, a Kat pulls up, waves and gets off and they were not a member of the club. Now... so many Kat's in one place... you'd think they'd want to know whats up! Peter, about time you posted!

I was at a light on Pacific Coat Hwy and an elderly lady(80 plus!) is being helped across the steet by a younger woman. She looks at the Kat and yells out..."I lost my virginity in a car like that!" Some things you just don't want to know!

There was a little 8 year old girl in the back of the car in front of me at a red light. She was furiously scribbling something...then held up a sign that said "I love your car"

I pulled up on base and the guard said "I'm sorry sir, we can't let you enter the base.........unless you let me sit in it!"

The most aggravating thing is people telling me "Gee, you must make too much money, huh?" I resist the urge to smack them upside the head, and tell them that their clapped out mini van cost more than this car.......

The second day I had my Kat a nice guy at a stoplight asked me if I'd pull over so he could look the car over. I pull into a parking lot and he is admiring the Kat when his wife calls him back to his SUV. He comes back laughing histerically. I asked him what was so funny and he said "my wife said that even I, as ugly as I am, could get p#$#% in that car"!

80 plus Flyer are you still in conciling I had a government truck pass me going the opposite way and all of a sudden he spung around and chased me till I stopped 5 minutes later turns out he had a 97 purple and had never seen another Kat.

Had this old man come up to me he must have been 75 plus and just rip a strip off me for showing off to everyone by owning a car like this when so many people couldn't even affort a car to drive he was so mad I just got in my car without saying anything to him "couldn't get a word in anyway" and just hoped he didn't kick the car LOL

The day after I bought the prowler I was taking my 17 year old to school (her request) and we were driving behind one of the school buses going to the high school. I had to go in to do some volunteer work for the school, so Jamie and I headed in the door. Just as we walked in the door one of Jamie's friends ran up and said "Wow did you see that cool Prowler pull in the parking lot, it was behind our school bus, wonder what lucky kid's parent owns that?" Jamie just looked at me winked and we both started laughing. It took the kid another two days to figure out Jamie was the lucky kid! Tami

That was AlleyCat's "old" girlfriend!

PB..........what you should have said was........

"I can't believe you don't recognize me.........would you like my autograph?" Then you should have signed a piece of paper with your name "ProwlerBabe", handed it to him and driven off!
