90 BARRETT-JACKSON EXPERIENCE
Rounding things off is this 700hp
Lingenfelter-powered ripper. The Glossy
Black finish is draped over an original Split-
Window body and rides on a custom Street
Shop frame. Under the hood sits a LS3 V8
topped with a Magnuson Supercharger.
The 6.2-liter V8 features a host of upgrades
from famed Corvette tuner Lingenfelter,
including an upgraded camshaft, ported
NO RESERVE - LOT #1423
cylinder heads and long-tube headers. A
sturdy TREMEC TKO600 5-speed manual
transmission fitted with a hydraulic clutch
and Lokar shifter translate power to an
aluminum driveshaft and on to 18- and
19-inch Billet Specialties wheels wrapped
in meaty Kumho Tires rubber. Unafraid to
hide its brawn, the ’Vette features has 2-inch
rear quarter flares and uses a set of Wilwood
brakes to provide maximum stopping
power. The powder-coated Street Shop
chassis has been upgraded with C4 Corvette
suspension and uses control arms and QA1
coilovers. Inside, the tan leather-wrapped
bucket seats are finished in the same
leather trim as the dashboard, door panels
and rear cargo area. The Corvette uses a
center-mounted boost gauge in place of the
original vertically mounted radio, and an
array of AutoMeter silver-faced gauges keep
a silver theme going throughout the cabin.
Additionally, the cabin is kept cool thanks
to a Generation IV Vintage Air climate
control system.
Each beautiful in their own unique way,
these “land sharks” offer a lens back in time,
connecting the works of Pete Brock, Bill
Mitchell and a little-known German racer
to the present. Don’t miss your chance to
slide behind the wheel this March as these
four Split-Windows command maximum
attention as they cross the Barrett-Jackson
auction block.
