'97 purple Prowler went through on Wednesday evening,,,on television during 'prime time'.....you missed it.

Jenn Yeong's '01 orange Prowler went across the ring around noon today... I was there so I don't know if it was on television, but was on 'live streaming' from B-J's website.

Jenn's cat & trailer details:

Hammered at $32,000 + 10% buyer's fee = $35,200...

Deduct 10% for the seller's fee from the hammer price of $32,000 - $3200 = $28,800 ....I figure, but could be off?

I hope Cody has pleasant DREAMS, because me thinks that is as close as he is going to get to the $39,995. Sarcasm out of the way, that is a perfect specimen for a garage queen or a 100 year climate controlled time capsule. What did it sell for at BJ? Just looked back, $29,700 included buyers fee. Just a small markup.

Bruce,,,Originally the car was purchased by a Chrysler Executive directly, so I'm fairly sure they would have some sort of documentation to prove their claim to which production build it actually was. B-J, to some degree, does research on the 'document claims' on the cars they accept for their auctions. B-J does not want to be part of any fraudulent sales due to misrepresentation. A local PHX Dodge-Chrysler-Plymouth dealer claimed to have the #9 built '97 Prowler, which sat in their showroom for atleast five years that I know of.

That is true,,,but concept//test mules//and R & D cars because they do not have #VINs, can not be sold for normal retail sales without a MSO title. Generally, we accept that those vehicles are eventually crushed. However, Ford sold (or donated) the Bondurant High Performance Driving School hundreds of Mustangs that didn't have VIN#s or titles,,,,and they couldn't sell them for street use vehicles. Bondurant had to sell them off as 'off-road vehicle use only' (racing).....or they went out of the U.S. to other countries?

The Craigslist ad first had me thinking a 'private buyer' had bought the car and decided afterwards they might have paid too much, and wanted to flip-it. The name Cody and the phone number listed in the CL ad ( 903-920-7400 ) is one of those fool-ya ads....directing the car away from a dealer's inventory sale.
