Custom 2000 Plymouth Prowler
Every year, just before the Super Bowl, Barrett-Jackson puts on one of the biggest auto auctions in the country. It has been several years since I have attended, primarily due to the threat posed by the COVID pandemic. There were a dozen or more huge tents to protect the majority of the vehicles to be auctioned off.

It is powered by a 6-cylinder engine and an automatic transmission. It is equipped with a polished rear pan and polished stainless-steel dual exhaust, along with shaved handles, sculpted trim, paint that was wet-sanded and polished to a mirror finish, and HID headlamps. Suicide doors open to reveal the handmade custom interior finished in Cream-colored Italian leather with black stitching. A waterfall between the seats holds three 8-inch JL Audio speakers. There is an extensive AV system, including two 10-inch JL Audio subwoofer basses mounted under the custom rear clamshell, with four 750-watt JL Audio amps mounted on motorized panels that are controlled by remote. There are 12 additional speakers mounted in the cabin, for a total of 17. A 10-inch in-dash monitor and a 26-inch TV round out the AV system. There is polished brightwork throughout, custom switches in the cabin, a custom grille, and chrome front and rear suspension. Stopping power is provided by the Wilwood polished aluminum front big-brake kit. This convertible received custom paint under the hood, with chrome details throughout. It sits on 24-inch Asanti wheels in the rear and 20-inch wheels in the front, wrapped in Pirelli P Zero tires. The car is offered from the Historic Motorcar Company collection.
