Have you considered adding brakes to it? My 15 Touring came to me with disk brakes and they stop amazing. Most people would never know but they do not look period correct. For my 24 Coupe I got a set of Rocky Mountain drum brakes that do look very period correct. People say they do not wok as good in rain and reverse but to me they are fine.
