I guess the bottom line is:
How much would you sell it for and what would a realistic price be to build the street rod?
I'm not biased, both are cool but I expect the rod to cost as much as the 77 sale price. You'd be out of a Bronco during the lengthy build process as well.
Not only that but really the only places to wheel nearby don't require a built rig. I know you want more out of the 77, but lockers can be done whenever. In fact I just picked up a 31 spline Detroit used. Parts are usually out there. If you sold the 77, you couldn't wheel at all for the Nov URE run. I won't let you cancel that event! Sure you could still do the meet and greet, but no wheeling after.
As a sideline spectator, I think it'd be the wrong move unless you are totally done off roading. I don't think you are, but that is me. You don't have to be like Ch__ie.
Just because an obstacle is there, it doesn't mean you have to do it. At least that is how I look at it.
My vote is to put some sliders on it and Maaco the paint. It'd look like a whole new animal. Do lockers down the road if you really want. Just have something practical that you can use for anything.
