I can deal with leaving the bumpers off but filling the nostrils looks like crap IMHO.

And you need to add Danny Gabbard's Ghia to the list of top 5.

The picture I posted was from Irwindale, 2003. Our best time with the car was 11.99 down at Carlsbad (where Eric was kicked off the track). It had a lot more in it....Especially for a heavy T-3. Not a lot of lightening, rear seat removed and t-bars (from Hector Bonilla through Mike Gagen). Would remove the passenger seat for racing and that's about it. There is a lot of footage of the car on the OSV dvd "Carlsbad" racing against our good buddy Scott Bakken.

Loved that car back in the day. 10 sec. turbo motor with Pink Panther riding shot gun. Stray Cat sticker in the back window. Way cool!

The winner of this competition is simple, for me it can only go to one car. The coolest KG ever.
I was seriously looking at buying the car, but just couldn't get the money together.
So, what car is it?
Well, in my opinion...

Danny Gabbard's black low light - Numero Uno Cal Look KG of all time!

gotta second that the feature on that car in Hot VW's showed just how cool a KG could be.
