Believe it or not.
My friend owns a Dumpstar franchise (Trash Dumpsters)
about two weeks ago he stop by, Banged on my door and by the time I answered it he was getting in his car and he yelled out, I left something for you I found in one of my dumpsters on your tailgate, I yelled back Thanks.

When I came around the corner this was sitting on my pick up truck tailgate. The Purple Prowler measures 9 inches & The wooden Plaque measures 12 X 7
It has a plate on it that is dated 1997, & says

1997
Order Aquisition Confrenence
Hilton Head SC
And on the rear of the car it has Torrington in script across the rear deck lid

[img] <A HREF="http://www.prowleronline.com/ubb/image_uploads/PPP/prowlerpromo.jpg[/img][img]http://www.prowleronline.c om/ubb" TARGET=_blank>http://www.prowleronline.com/ubb/image_uploads/PPP/prowlerpromo.jpg[/img][img]http://www.prow leronline.com/ubb</A> /image_uploads/prowlerpromo.jpg[/img]

Hope the pic load if not I may have to try to load it later

Anyway I can not believe this came out of a dumpster on the way to the dump

Looks cool. I got your 2 links to show pics but they were the same 2 you already posted. Any full shots of the promo?

If you know Don up there, with the yellow, tell him he has a PM. Thanks.

Sounds like a "thank you for participation" gift. The auto companies use those 'diecast plus plaque' as token gifts quite a bit.

If I were a betting person, I'd say it was probably a regional sales meeting or process improvement meeting for that area (Atlantic or SouthEast region).... may have been just internal Chrysler employeees, or it also could have included dealers as well.

Just wondering, is it a Maisto diecast?

I was thinking along the lines of a Torrington Bearing (Timken) dealer, order conference only because the back of the Prowler has Torrington In script across the back of the deck lid.

Can't tell who made the car with removing it, it has felt on the bottom side of it & I don't want to mess with that.

It was made by Barker Speciality Co, in Cheshire Conn.
so I will be giving them a call to see what I can come up with.

I hope to have the rest of the pics up by tomorrow.

From the description the diecast is 1/18 scale. From the limited picture posted I can tell it is the concept version of the Prowler. These Diecasts were made by ERTL. Great find. Only goes to prove that one persons trash is anothers gold.

I know who Don is but I have misplaced his phone #, I'll call him when I find it and let him know he has a PM & you want to talk to him.

He doesn't have a Prowler so he may not be on the POA much, But he's the Guy that has the 30's Plymouth Hot rod that he incorporated a lot of prowler parts into, He also has a prowler trailer to pull behind it.
