Moral, ethical, aesthetic dilemma, which car to keep? 444-544

Been a while,..Big (life)changes, but now I need advice, comments, criticism.

One of my beauties has to go for a number of reasons, the least logical being "can't keep two 'keepers'".

The first one is my 1957 445 Duett, (w/ a B-20, M-41) daily driver type car, still needs to have the interior finished, but totally usable (two tone sand and sage green), and the other choice is my 1968 Blue on Blue 220 (122 Amazon wagon). Also totally usable, drove it 2000 miles across country last year, also needs the interior finished (headliner, rear cargo area carpeted, etc.)

The Duett has a serious "cool factor", but face it, it handles like a shopping cart, and rides like rolling down a flight of stairs inside a metal trash can!!
The Amazon is almost a modern car, compared to the Duett, (late B-18, also w/ an M-41) and is in my opinion, a little more elegant, almost pretty. Deep dark blue, has all the chrome bits, and probably easier to find spares for, in the long run.

Picture of Homer Simpson dancing up and down, whimpering "what do I do, what do I do,...!!
THX, R.
