Rumor has it he made his fortune in the title industry. He sold his company for $xxxxx??. He bought LPE after John died. I am sure the only ones who know the real story are close individuals to him, but who cares....what an awesome collection.

170 cars? minus the 68 vettes (40%) that he probably didnt pay a dime for equals only about 100 cars. eh..


Still a cool collection

Hi!While the collection is private, there are events and fundraisers that are held at the warehouse regularly. Follow the Lingenfelter Collection on facebook to keep informed on when the events are taking place, who the event benefits, ticket information, etc. In Ken's own words, it is too cool to keep to yourself!

The next event is this Saturday evening. Details are in the link below

I can assure you, none of the cars were anywhere close to free. Some were bought with low miles used. Besides that, MSRP is the name of the game. You are right about one thing, it is cool!

Indeed it is. It's better to just call it what it is now... "The Lingenfelter Collection"

Again, follow the facebook link /thelingenfeltercollection to keep updated about all things related to the collection!
