    This is the newest member of the family. I never thought I'd be able to buy a car like this!!!! She's getting loaded today for her cross country trip from NY to Cali. I can't wait for her to get here!!!!

    Actually it's not a business coupe. It's a Deluxe coupe. Notice the chrome.

    I'm probably just gonna keep it the way it is, In my opinion I think when you slam the coupes it makes the greenhouse look HUGE like a big bubble. But who know's I might change my mind later.

    That's more what I was thinking only like 1 or 2 inches, but nothing too drastic.

    I have had good results with Fedex auto transport. Very professional, enclosed trailers.
