Author	Topic: What is a Hot Rod, exactly?
YELLER CAT POA Site Supporter Prowler Junkie From:FLORIDA, USA Registered: Jun 2012 Admin Use	posted 02-15-2005 07:40 PM As the Prowler still seeks acceptance from some Automotive (Hot Rod) Sanctioning Groups, I thought the following article may interest you... http://autos.msn.com/Advice/Article.aspx?contentid=9226&src=Sports%20CarsCategory&p os=Edit4 The following is the last paragraph of the above article... Clearly, one might argue that hot rodding is making a bid for mainstream acceptance, especially with the arrival of the Plymouth Prowler, Panoz AVI and hot-selling Chrysler PT Cruiser. However, from all appearances hot rods seem to be retaining at least some of their outlaw charm, not just for the young but for the young at heart. And they probably always will, thanks to those deeper elements of their definition, the ones the dictionary leaves out. This message has been edited by YELLER CAT on 02-15-2005 at 07:46 PM

condor Prowler Junkie From:Frankfurt a.M. , Hessen, Germany Registered: Jun 2003 Admin Use	posted 02-16-2005 03:28 AM Nice article . I like classic Street Rods (.. pre 49") like my own .(attachment)Maybe they are Hot Rods too. High tech street rod are nice too, but they are too expensive (for me). The Prowler is my "high tech (factory) hot Rod. Compare to my 34 Fords the Prowler is also a big eye catcher and rides touble free. I use the cat" to visit many US Car Shows and Car Shows here in Europe. On real rod/classic car or street rod shows, prowlers are not welcome.
