Ken Lingenfelter has a highly respectable collection of over 150 vehicles. This weekend, the cousin of renowned NHRA racer John Lingenfelter will open lift his garage doors to the public to view his prized possessions.

The showing is actually a charity event, benefiting the Detroit Institute of Opthamology, with a $15 entry fee.

Guests can expect a myriad of genres on display. From classic muscle cars of the 60′s and 70′s including Ford Mustangs, Pontiac GTO’s, several Chevrolet models to supercars and more.

Lingenfelter says of his collection “Some cars I can’t imagine selling. The Duntov [Corvette] mule, how could you sell it? It’s a one-of-a-kind. Same with the Hurst Lingenfelter Trans Am. Why would you sell it?”

The crowd should not be disappointed.

Lingenfelter Black Camaro SS

Almost a year ago, the Lingenfelter LS9 powered 2010 Chevrolet Camaro SS quickly grabbed our attention as it ran a quarter mile in 10.36 at 139.95 mph at the Camaro5Fest in Georgia. That made it the fastest TR6060 manual transmission equipped Chevrolet Camaro. That LPE LS9 Camaro was powered by the company’s 855-hp ZR1 LS9 engine.

Well, the Lingenfelter Black Camaro SS is back for 2011 but this time… it’s pumping out in the neighborhood of 1,200 horsepower. For 2011, the Lingenfelter Camaro SS gets revised pedders, Lingenfelter drag race shock absorber package
427 CID LSX engine, Lingenfelter CNC ported, GM LS3 six bolt cylinder heads, face plated TR6060 Trans by RPM Transmissions, strain gauged shifter and an LPE (LNC-TC1) 2-step with shift torque cut.

Lingenfelter has released a video of the 2011 Black Camaro SS testing on the dyno but a track video is expected to be release very soon. We can’t wait to see what the quarter-mile run in this will be.
