Default BIG decision on vehicle trading!!! need input to help decide!!!

ok guys, so i was cruising around online today like i usually do, looking at custom vehicles etc and i came across a nearly mint car that id like to buy. Im also really needing to move out and buy a house of my own - pref. this summer, as i have a job now i can afford to do that with as well as my mother pushing me to move out. However, when i brought up this idea to her she didnt say no way you need to buy a house first, so maybe theres a chance i can make it work out to be able to do both still. Anyway, only way id probably be able to afford it would be to trade BOTH of my non daily driver vehicles. My 83 C10 as well as my 39 Dodge D11 original/project/put around car. Heres a pic of both vehicles i currently own, as well as a link to the new vehicle i would be purchasing with the trade in of BOTH vehicles pictured. Itll be a tough decision as i have lots of blood sweat and tears in the C10 and the 39 has been in my family for over 15 years, plus the rareness of it makes it hard to part with as well

Heres a link to the car id be trading both vehicles in on, this link has 20 pictures of this car inside and out. VERY well built vehicle from hat i can see on here, has one blemish that will be pointed out in pics, but it looks like something i could buff partially if not completely out on my own as people generally have no clue how t buff.

Nice cool car, but how would you get out of it, if I stuck a horse shoe into both door handle

I think I would be way more concerned with finding my own place, but that's just me. Cool collection you have already man...

Roll down the window and take the horse shoe out.

If its me I am keeping the Dodge. There both cool but there's too many street rods with sbc in them out there for me.
