How easy would it be for someone to make a 33 kit for a prowler? How about it Jim Sutton?

That is why I bought a Prowler. It was the best example of the old "rods" in my past, but yet without the maintenance worries.

It has been done. This chevy powered Prowler was built for Dick Marriott. I wish someone would come up with a kit to make this conversion.

John Lingenfelter did the power train, Chip Foose did the body work. Moved the front wheels forward with custom a-arms, laid the grille back into the hood and extended the rear fenders with a rear pan. Very nice work.

That certainly would pump a lot of Prowler owners blood.

I like the Dick Marriott version but I think if you're going to all that trouble, why not rake the grill back even more like on Hemisphere? For me it gives such a radical look.

Exactly it my 28 highboy with airbags that I can hope in and drive to Vegas on a whim.

Why tear up a perfectly good Prowler to change how it looks. Buy one already done like you want it or build one from scratch that looks like you want it. Much cheaper in the long run anyway and you can put in a bigger motor.

Many of us do mods to change the look of the prowler. Look at all the bumpers that have come off, aftermarket grills, hardtops etc.

Some like to keep them stock. Others like to personalize.

I personally would like to have one to keep basically stock (sans front bumpers) and another to radically modify.That's what I would do for fun. Fun is what it's all about.
