Here’s my build of the AMT/ERTL Plymouth Prowler with Trailer. Painted in Extreme Lacquer Purplelicious with Krylon matte gray interior and top. Fit and finish on this kit was tricky: the headlight pods don’t fit in the body with the chrome inner headlight buckets mounted, the front suspension is incredibly fragile, and the rear tires don’t fit in the wheel wells. I had to crudely grind out the chassis and remove the rear sway bar and upper dual shocks to get the wheels in. I managed to get it together and looking ok. At final assembly, I realized that I assembled one of the front wheels with the tire tread backwards. This kit has those hard solid rubber tires that you have to assemble the rim halves around, so no chance of fixing the tread direction. These Prowlers are such cool looking cars; it’s kind of a shame they were panned by enthusiasts since they were “only” v6 automatics (and wildly impractical). It’s shocking Chrysler even built these cars in the first place!

I didn't know the history. Check out his model that inspired the car. -
