Default 63 Biscayne original frame or change it

I'm trying to decide which way to go with my Biscayne.

Should I keep the original frame, brace it and go with air ride or a different frame?

I'd say a different frame. Can you say "Roadster Shop"?

I'm not loaded but, if I look at the price of a ride-tech system it is $7K so, just a few more $ and I get a new frame.

I think you answered your own question. What's a few grand more...or double even? You only live once and you can't take your $$$ with you, so I say go for it
