    Nice coupe. In the spirit if pre '65 rodding I would lose the V8 emblems as well as the moons and skinny white walls. Welcome.

    Your car is not a business coupe. Yours are often called a long door coupe, so passengers can access the back seat. Club coupe, or Sedan Coupe. Business coupes have a smaller side window, short doors, and a package tray as opposed to a back seat.

    Welcome. Nice car. I wouldnt change a single thing. The moons and skinny whites look great. It's your car. Do what pleases you, not others, unless they paid for it.
