tz1238 POA Site Supporter Prowler Junkie From:Elk Grove Village, Illinois Registered: Dec 2003 Admin Use	posted 12-31-2003 04:43 PM Just became the proud owner of a 2001 Silver Prowler with 8k miles on it. Or I will be the owner when I pick it up in a couple of weeks. Drove it for the first time today and you still couldn't wipe the smile off my face. What a great car to drive. Visibility limited, cramped cockpit, WHO CARES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Talk about fun to drive. It's like having an E ticket at Disneyworld. What a great blend of old and new, and, you never have to worry about getting home like you do with an classic car. I 'm bring it home in a couple of weeks and I concerned about the road salt we have in Illinois. I will only be driving it about 30 miles to my house. Is aluminum corrosion a problem with these cars? I will get it detailed and have the undercarriage detailed A.S.A.P, but you never know when I will get a chance to do it with Chicago weather. It will be storage it in my garage for the next three months. Any advise ? Jack Stands, stabilizer, etc.? This is gonna kill me until I can drive it again. What would be the first modification you would suggest? Suspension bracing? Great forum, will be on here constantly. Time to make my donation.

GUB POA Site Supporter Prowler Junkie From:Boca Raton, fl Registered: May 2003 Admin Use	posted 12-31-2003 05:03 PM Congrats on the silver cat. I would go with the ceramic brake pads and mud flaps first. I put on Jay's SSS muffler, love the sound. It just keeps getting better, enjoy the ride. Now everyone else will add on to the list. sandy g.

tz1238 POA Site Supporter Prowler Junkie From:Elk Grove Village, Illinois Registered: Dec 2003 Admin Use	posted 12-31-2003 06:42 PM The car is in the southern suburbs of Chicago. It will take a couple of weeks to get the warranty and all the paperwork in order. Thanks much for the offer. The generosity already on this site is overwhelming.But seeing that I only have 30 miles to drive, and West Frankfort is near St. Louis, I think that would be major overkill, I think I'll be able to pick my day to drive it home. With all the excitement of the day I totally forgot it is New Years Eve. Happy New Years to everyone!
tz1238 POA Site Supporter Prowler Junkie From:Elk Grove Village, Illinois Registered: Dec 2003 Admin Use	posted 12-31-2003 06:44 PM The car has mudflaps on it, but the passenger side flap is missing. I'll order them this week. Do you have rear mudflaps also?

WildCat POA Site Supporter Prowler Junkie Personal ScrapBook From:North Louisville, Indiana, USA Registered: Jul 2000 Admin Use	posted 01-01-2004 12:32 AM Congradulations on your new purchase if there is a lot of salt on the road you might want to have a roll back pick it up and deliver it to your house, or wash it once you get it home and clean the bottom. There are some that have driven in the snow and no effect, but I'm one that hates SALT.
firegabe POA Site Supporter Prowler Junkie From:Ca. Registered: Nov 2003 Admin Use	posted 01-01-2004 03:10 AM I do reccomend front and rear mud flaps. and a tranny cooler cover. You Don't want to break that!! Congrats I know just how you feel I just got a prowler also. FireGabe
butchcee POA Site Supporter Prowler Junkie From:Lake Ariel, Pa. Registered: Sep 2000 Admin Use	posted 01-01-2004 07:26 AM have fun with the new ride. I noticed some oxidation on my rear frame and undercarriage and I dont drive in the wet so the car is prone to surface corrosion. Do what Larry says and hose it off.
GRROWL POA Site Supporter Prowler Junkie From:Herndon, VA Registered: Feb 2002 Admin Use	posted 01-01-2004 08:32 AM quote: Originally posted by tz1238: Do you have rear mudflaps also? If you go with rear mudflaps, go with REAL MUDFLAPS: I consider the Mopars to just be mounting tabs for real flaps. If you want them to be functional, you need to bolt on some REAL truck flaps. All the original Mopars do is protect the space above the bumper, the first time over a wet road your whole rear will get sprayed from the vacuum it creates. Besides, it provides "a canvas to express your creativity", such as the cute little kitties show. -GRROWL

Marty Usher POA Site Supporter Prowler Junkie From:San Antonio, Texas, United States Registered: Jun 2001 Admin Use	posted 01-01-2004 10:52 AM Congrats on the new Prowler. My best advise to you is don't pay attention to anything I post. If you are worried about driving your new pride & joy 30 miles home, my advise would drive you absolutely crazy. I'm closing in on 70,000 miles and use mine as a daily driver regardless of weather. I hope you enjoy your new kat and are ready to do a lot of smiling! DRiving your Prolwer willthe second most fun thing you can do in a car! ------------------ *2000 Black with hand painted blue faded to purple flames*

tz1238 POA Site Supporter Prowler Junkie From:Elk Grove Village, Illinois Registered: Dec 2003 Admin Use	posted 01-01-2004 11:04 AM Marty, Like I said I'm anal. Had 7 boats, wore out my arm just waxing them. The 40 footer was a sob to keep clean. I noticed you are from Kentucky. Have you ever been to Chicago in the winter? It's like one giant salt lick. We spread salt on the street when there's only a 10% chance of snow. I have a black Ram truck and I could wash it every other day up here. In the winter it looks gray more than Black.
