WICKED FAST AND FUN BEAST!!!! 1968 CONVERTIBLE CORVETTE! 355 CUBIC INCH CHEVROLET BUILT BY JOHN LINGENFELTER!!!!! CLEAR TITLE!! NOT A REBUILT TITLE!! FUN AND EXCITING TO DRIVE!!!! Totally Customized body and interior. Did he do the car modifications as well as the drivetrain? Tim Dyer of LPE said this motor predates installations by LPE!!!! Automatic Transmission. New Gaskets and seals on the rear differential. Factory Power Windows, Power Brakes AND A/C Car!!! Compressor turns free and system intact. 4 wheel disc brakes. Starts and stops well.. Rotors and clipers look good and all engage. Tires and wheels are great. The headlights are lightly sticky but work great. Has some touched up chips in the paint, Needs fiberglass work in the hood (but the few cracks in the hood have been bonded and fused..NO CRACKS IN THE BODY) and needs some interior work as shown in the photos.... BUT... THIS IS ONE WICKED CAR!!!! When I picked it up I drove it from Portland Oregon to Yakima Washington it was both exciting and Fun! It totally lives up to what a Motor built by John Lingenfelter should be.. In Spades!!! Drive it like it is, restore with the Mods or go back stock. Even going back to stock a Lingenfelter drivetrain alone kicks the value into the stratosphere.. Feel free to ask any Corvette expert! This BEAST is loaded but it does need a nicer looking top than the old Tan one. I AM THROWING IN A BRAND VEW BLACK TOP AND SEALS(FACTORY SPEC)!!!!!!! Undercarraige looks good except for some rust on the passenger floor(maybe some moisture had been trapped there) Car was Stored in a Barn for multiple years but jumped and driven right out. AND I DROVE IT FROM PORTLAND OR TO YAKIMA WA. This listing has been exciting but let's push it further... Starting at a low $9999. with NO RESERVE!!!!! NOW THAT IS EXCITING!!! You are NOT going to easily find a rare car like this again at a whim....Bid now and Bid last!!! When you own this car it is all the excitement you will ever need!!! Odometer shows 69,000 but the interior and exterior have beed totally customized. This does not say built by Lackies or by LPE.. It Says "BY JOHN LINGENFELTER"!!! Very early motor built by the Man himself!!! John Lingenfelter won 13 NHRA national event titles – nine in Comp, three in Super Stock and one in Pro Stock Truck. John’s racing career spanned more than four decades where John raced everything from Super Stock and Comp door cars to Econo dragsters, Pro Stock Trucks and Sport Compact. John was the first Comp driver to break the six-second quarter-mile barrier The name John Lingenfelter has become a legend in the world of performance engineering.
