pumpkin Prowler Junkie Posts: 7907 From: Las Cruces, NM, USA Registered: DEC 2001	posted 11-29-2003 12:19 PM Recently someone asked us about the Prowler colors and whether if they painted a Prowler with the Woodward or BlackTie color scheme, could they pass the car off as a low production Prowler. What paperwork does it say, i.e. title, this is what the car is? Is it part of the VIN? ------------------ Current mods: Mopar dual exhaust & front mudflaps; MacMotorsports Air Intake; Real Rod Air Patrol; Graphics by Balistek Designs; ($8) Chrome grille; Chrome tire valve-stem covers; Painted rear bumper lettering; Prowler Pro Gears; Synthetic Oil; Raybestos Ceramic Brake Pads; TGF Door Panel Inserts & Headrest Covers; SheepskinExpress Sheepskin Seatcovers; Grille Light; Pinstriping by Bo Boring; Painted Valve Cover; Window Tinting; Windshield Visor Banner; Front Bumper Removal / Relocation of Front Turn Signal Lights; Real Rod Transmission Cooler Cover, Sill and Carper Covers, Aero Front Covers and Roadster Rear Pan, rear bumpers removed; rear mudflaps; painted calipers; Prowler Products by Gary Drilled Rotors, front and rear; Painted tach; and Jay's Aluminum Billet Center Caps w/shimmers, Chrome Lugnuts and Chrome Radio Bezel Shimmer.

purplecat Prowler Junkie Posts: 583 From: Texas Hill Country Registered: DEC 2001	posted 11-29-2003 12:44 PM There has been at least one silver painted to look like a black tie (no pin striping)and sold as a black tie here in CA. There was a resulting lawsuit and the owners now have the fake and a real black tie. Not sure how it all played out, don't really want to know. From what I understand the VIN was part of the key to the whole thing...was able to verify original color and order build sheet to detemine what happened to the car. I agree with AC...completely unethical to misrepresent a vehicle as something that it is not.
CTProwler Prowler Junkie Posts: 3915 From: Sherman CT USA Registered: NOV 2002	posted 11-29-2003 02:52 PM Passing something off as original is wrong, period. If you like the look and have a red lets say, and you want to paint it great. But if you go to sell it i wouldn't say it was a Woodward Edition and they only made 153 of them. I have a Candy and there are only 300 of them, so its pretty rare if your looking for one. Thats about all i would say. If you want a candy the chances your going to find one is lower then say a Black. By the time you pay to paint your red to look like a woodward you should have just bought the Woodward. ------------------

ALLEY CAT Prowler Junkie Posts: 36093 From: Mesa, Az Registered: JUL 2000	posted 11-30-2003 10:25 AM Curtis - Yes, Mike/Judy have the last candy red cat built, aka the last retail production Prowler built. Mike/Judy also have the last Prowler built, the HV Blue Prowler w/white interior accents. As the museum curator, I'm in charge of keeping these beauties clean and well maintained.
