"SVO coachline" I have to admit that I don't know what that is.

I'm still on the fence about what to do.

+1 to what everyone else has said. Don't make me come down there with a trailer and take it off your hands!

"SVO" = Special Vehicle Operations.
The 100's only went so far on the production line before they were removed and taken to SVO workshops and finished there, including the hand painted Coachline which in plain English is the red line running along the side of your car.

Default Hmmm ...

We call them Pinstripes. That picture is the first time that I have seen them and I thought that they were done by the owner; interesting that they were done by the SVO shop.

Yes, the pinstriping is original as far as I know. It's a little thing that sure gets a lot of attention from people, especially at night when it really pops.
