Thinking about ditching my project 55 already and going a different route/year....

[danheit]

I know I have been a little weak with the armchair web roddin, but I have been poking around here a while. Sadly, I am getting kind of put off with my 55 project, and the lack of garage space it is providing me. My truck has great potential, but needs more body work than I think I can do, and way more than I can afford to pay someone else to do. I am also a fan of the 67-72 body style, and have been contemplating trying to find someone to trade me my 55 and the parts truck with the better sheetmetal for a driving fixer 67-72. Aside from the cool factor that my 55 has, is there any reason NOT to do this? I am completely on the fence, and am trying to see reasons to go one way or the other. Why should I stay with my 55? Don't get me wrong, I love the truck, and it has a ton of potential, but I just don't see there ever being a light at the end of this tunnel. I have asked a similar question on the 67-72 forum.

Sway me folks!
