    sure... not always cars people see in the main building though; a few cool cars have been brought in over the last 12 months to the main building though.

    I may have to try to make it back up there for this. It's turning into a busy month for me.

    How about if we meet for breakfast and drive over as a group?

    I would suggest meeeting at 9 AM so we have enough time to consume mass quantities of bacon and other cholesteral-laden foods and still get there by 10:30.

    Sounds like a good idea. It looks like I'll be able to make it too.

    Great! Unfortunately, I cannot cordon off any special parking, but I look forward to seeing as good a show outside as it is inside :)

    Isaac,

    I had a great time visiting the Lingrnfelter Collection over the weekend. Despite visiting a second time I am still amazed at the great variety of cars and the eagerness of Mr. L and the Lingenfelter family to share this passion with others.

    The one thing I must know is why no F50? Why?!!!!

    Thanks,
    Ryan

    He doesn't want to spend F50 money IMO, and they don't come up that often. A while back, I think he looked at two, and neither were the car that would stand out, while being reasonably priced.

    This Thursday will be my final day at Lingenfelter Performance Engineering. Over the past two and a half years, I've been able be a part of some pretty amazing things, ranging from SEMA to being a part of one of the great car collections, and collectors in the world; along with the premier aftermarket tuner of all things LSx; and building some of the most exciting ways to find fun in a gallon of gasoline. I want to say thank you to everybody who have worked to help make us all a success, the life-long friends I've made, the fans of the collection, and performance company, and the journey we have all gone on together. I especially want to thank Ken Lingenfelter for giving me the opportunity. It was through a friendship of chance that started 10 years ago at a grocery store parking lot that started my journey; and living vicariously through my photos of cars. Who could have ever guessed?!

    It's been a true joy getting to start a new career doing something that I love, and loving what I do. I am truly proud of what has come from these years. One thing I am certain of is that this isn't "Goodbye". As this is what I love to do, I will continue seeing and talking to everybody at so many of the shows.

    I eagerly am looking forward to the next step in my career, and work hard to see where this will take me, and the people I will meet. There are too many people to thank in a posting like this specifically; so thank you to everybody who was a part of my success, and continued success!

    Isaac,

    It was a pleasure meeting you several years ago, and a pleasure to see your enthusiasm and generosity continue to grow.

    I hope you find fulfillment and success in your next venture, but seeing the Lingenfelter Collection without you there won't be the same.
