That's about the point where I'm at with my 53, I want to drive it, so no more mods until it's driveable. Then I can do the other planned mods as the money allows.

I know what you mean!! I did finally get mine running and mobile awhile back which really brings the desire level back up. I have just resigned myself to not working on the truck if I don't feel like it. The quality of the work is just not as good when you're not excited about it. Keep after it though and good luck.
