lingenfelter - What do you guys think of this car?

[69LM1]

I have an opportunity to pick up a lingenfelter built 69 camaro. It is a convertible and has all of the paperwork from lingenfelter, including a dyno sheet. The work was done in the mid 80's.
I know that he was really heavy into the vetts, anyone have any info to share as to desirability (if any) of these cars?

------Normally I would say "having anything John layed his hands on would be a good thing",but this car just doesnt instill a whole lot of enthusiasm. Can you post the specs on what was done? Just wondering how radical the work was..........Bill S

------When I started posting your specs werent up yet! This combo doesnt seem radical in any sense. Heck,it didnt even cost all that much,but true to the Ligenfelter legend,and the guy I knew and liked,the thing has a good dyno-sheet. Its desirablity really is probably all wrapped up in the asking price at this point..........Bill S

Hi Bill,
Actually,the price is very reasonable, under 5k. I am going to buy it, as a convertable alone is probably worth that. I am just waiting on some updated pics. Now, I realize that everyone is looking for something "special", and this is not a big block or anything. But, I did not know if the cars that "John" (what a last name,almost as bad as mine) built engines for add anything or not. If nothing else, I guess that it would be a great conversation piece
