Default "Sultan of Michigan" Car collection

I did a search and did not come up with anything, so I hope this is not a dupe (did another search and found it posted in the ZR1 section a while back). Really cool car collection, and plenty of C6's. Look at both links...

Nice........... WOW

First thing I noticed was an Enzo, Ford GT and the gray Aston Martin, probably a DBS... Those kind of collection amaze me, like they are from another world.

The Enzo is my dream car.....

That's a serious collection...incredible! The cars are amazing in themselves but I'd like to know the 'back' story behind the collection. That's probably as (or more) interesting than the collection itself. Thanks for sharing!

I am assuming you mean Lingenfelter's heirs, family or company? Isn't THE John Lingenfelter dead?

That's an awesome car collection. I did some quick checking into the Lingenfelter stuff just now. The collection is owned by Ken Lingenfelter in Brighton, Michigan. He owns LPE assets. He also acquired LPE Engineering. In one of the links I found it said Ken and John were cousins.

Maybe I'm crazy, but after looking at the Youtube video, twice, and all those georgeous cars in that collection, the car that turned me on the most was that orange '70 Nova SS. One thing I know for sure is, I love Chevys, and I love Red, and Orange.
