Maybe this is old news to some of you, but I just found out today.

This guy really made me proud of american know how. I see alot of ricer wannabe's that are truly fast cars but nothing comes close to a LPE corvette regarding emmissions,power, bang for the buck. I'd take a ttvette for the money compared to a exotic whatever anyday. He will be missed. I didn't know the guy and I'm truly bummed out by his passing. Maybe the company will continue I hope! :flag

Oh man....I didn't know he died either. That's truly depressing.

I mean no disrespect, but the price of those earlier cars are going to soar. Just like any late artists work should.

Yeah there is a lady on C5 here on this forum trying to sell his silver C5 TT that runs 9's. I think she was asking 150K or something like that?

I'm not surprise. The thing that's unique about Lingenfelter's cars, is that he had a hand in building most if not all of them, and even put his signature on them.

Barrett-Jackson will take advantage of this I'm sure. :rolleyes:

I have a really nice LPE 475 93 ZR1 on ebay right now, gotta get 36k for it as the package has 90K in it.

I would love to keep the car but I just bought a 95 390 stoker zr1 with 505 SAE at the wheels. the LPE ZR1s are super durable HP, and a blast to drive.

Man Ron if I could get rid of my yellow 92 ZR-1 I would swipe yours up in a heart beat. The market is kind of strange right now. I sure would love to have it though good luck. :cheers:
