I am the original owner that sent the Corvette to Lingenfelter for a stage 1 twin turbo then back for several upgrades and a stage II with a boost controller. Every upgrade in the selling add was done by me including the wheels. My son found it somehow and let me know. Previous corvette was a 1990 that I had Lingenfelter install a 420cid small block that I raced in the quarter mile but the 1999 Twin Turbo was never tracked just fun to drive on the street. Still looks in great shape.

1999 Twin Turbo was originally garaged in Millersville Maryland then driven to Titusville FL where we retired too from Titusville. It was put on a transport truck sent to Turbo Bob on the corvette forum when I sold it. Hope this information may help in the sale.

Pretty cool! Did you enjoy your time with the car? Interested to hear about your experience with it. What kind of power did it put down?

Nice build.

It was a ton of fun to drive. Had a couple of friends that had Vipers so my vanity MD plate was VIPRKLR . With close to 700 RWH and Rear wheel TQ it would easily blow the 335 tires off at 60 mph. I just enjoyed driving this one and the boost came in quick. Lingenfelter set it up so the boost came in at set RPM's and not all at once.

Take care
Bill

Bill that's not completely factual. I am good friends with the owner and stored the car for a bit. The wheels are completely redone with different offsets and the rears upgraded to 19" wheels as the old 335 Michelin 18s weren't made any longer. He re-did a few things in the interior including the custom Corbeau seats. The exhaust was upgraded and tweaked. I believe the stereo was done as well. But yes... the basic LPE TT package and brakes are intact as that's why he bought it
