Calling all good looking 85-90 Formulas

I havent seen many good looking 3rd gen birds from 85-90 ... especially ones without ground effects, so lets see some NIIICE looking 85-90 birds w/out ground effects!

Lookin' good, boys. I believe I am going to go with bright metallic purple paint job, and some drag lites. Definately, my main style is the wild-hey look at me look, but my main goal is the lowest et possible, so I think ground effects and such would not only increase the weight of the car, but also hurt the drag as it goes down the track. Keep em comin!
