This is probably going to sound a bit wierd to some of you, so please bare with me

I am a 3D modeler, and am keenly in search of a set of detailed Prowler blueprints. (normally part of a brochure)
The blueprints are our main source of reference, next to detailed photographs, but sadly none of the blueprint databases I know of carry this magnificent car's blueprints.

Have any of you perhaps come across a website/forum that has the blueprints?

Prowler's are not available in my country, so I cannot pop down to my local dealership and ask them for assistance.

Thanks for your time

Just go to the Patent and Trademark Office website http://patft.uspto.gov/netahtml/srchnum.htm
and type in the Patent Numbers D353564 and D355397. Click on the result and then view "images" (in red at the top of the page).
Printing them requires a TIFF plug-in see: http://www.uspto.gov/patft/images.htm for help in getting free software to do this.

see: http://www.prowleronline.com/ubb/Forum1/HTML/006728.html
for the entire thread.

You're welcome. I'm GORGEOUS, by the way, I just GRROWL a lot.

Note that these are the patent drawings for the concept; look at the other link for quite a few details of how the production models differed.

Glad to help.

What country are you in?

Yeah, I did look at the original thread. I will most definitely take those points into consideration. It appears that the basic shape has remained the same throughout it's development, which is just perfect, because I only use the blueprint to flesh out the basic model. Then i use detailed photo's to add all the finer details.

I hail from sunny South Africa, where it appears we only have 3 Chrysler models, which are all boring when compared to the Prowler.

cheers

Tell me something, where/how do you find the patent number's for cars? I did a simple web search, but came up empty handed.

thanks.
