Re: John Lingenfelter update (flynbludream)
The man has not been called a winner and earned the reputation he has for nothing. I have a feeling John will fight and win this battle and when he returns to his shop in Decatur, I will try in be one of the first to welcome him back. So many people here and I am sure around the world are truely concerned about his recovery and well being. It shows how much John is respected and his work revered.

Re: John Lingenfelter update (flynbludream)
My understanding is that he has no brain activity... If indeed that is the case (which I am sorry to hear that it is) he is in very bad shape and I could only hope for a recovery. :cry

Re: John Lingenfelter update (DsC5)
Well at least his back seems to have healed. I suppose semi-comatose is better than total, but this just sucks. Some people have emerged from comas after extended periods and he's a tough guy, so he has chance of pulling thru. :blueangel: :flag

Re: John Lingenfelter update (flynbludream)
When I decided to do my 427 TT I went through 21st Century Musclecars. Which is owned by John and Kerri Page. Kerri is John Lingenfelters daughter. I got to talk to her first hand about her Dad. I have never met him but I got a good impression of him by talking to Kerri. He is truely a special person and has really given alot to the Corvette community. I truely hope he can make a full recovery. I was hoping to someday get his autograph on my fuel rail covers. :blueangel:

This is REALLY sad... to survive a bad crash, only to be more or less "done-in" by the medical team. My prayers are with him and his family.
