Boosted LT5's

[Blue Flame Restorations]

The first "Z" I ever rode in was Will's 385 TT. Thanks Will, for getting me hooked!

Brett when I met will he was talking about that TT car. At that time Lingenfelter was still building it for him. I think the litigation over that car between LPE and the original owner in Gibraltar was settled by then.

I think it was 2010 when he took me for a spirited ride at BG. He's such a good guy.

He truly is Brett.

He also has a very low mile all original black on black 1990 ZR-1 in climate controlled storage. The other three are LPE 368 TT's And the owner of one of those cars lives in Conroe TX. Will is a class act and one of the old timers in the C4 ZR-1 game. When he gets back in town me my wife and Will and his wife plan on going out for dinner. And he promises to give me a ride in either the 415 or the TT. I can't wait.



Will and his 1990 LPE 415 Aero body. I took these pictures back in 2007 at the ZR-1 BBQ at Corey Hendersons. It was the first time I met Glenn B. And Jerry Downey also.

I thought the 385TT was Will's Car, However I was not sure and did not want to open mouth and insert foot.

He did not see smoke and there were no signs of any issues when his car caught fire. he didnt lose the car since he was notifed immediately and drove off the track and put the fire out. He had damage but nothing a new bumper and paint did not fix. He was personally disillusioned with that twin turbo set up and sold the car. He then got that money and bought a built ls7 z06 car and makes his power naturally. fyi..

Yeah, we don't need no stinking turbo's.

A TT done right is a beautiful thing indeed.

Sure is, especially that turquoise TT Callaway car that is for sale (hint-hint).
