Default Which car to get rid of?

Hey guys, I need to get rid of a few cars pretty quickly, Been buying too many since summer started. Which cars would be more worth keeping and which should I part out?

1973 Nova (runs) 350 v8
1977 Trans Am (runs) 400 v8
1977 Formula Firebird (runs) 403 v8
1980 RS Camaro (no engine)
1980 Z28 T-top Camaro (no engine)
1981 T-top Camaro (runs) 267 v8

Ideally I can keep 4, the other 2 I have to part out or sell. I was saving up for a motor for the z28.

Is the 73 Nova the same as the 70? Or is it the beginning of the new body style? Pretty sure its the 73-74 that I don't like. Just an opinion. Had a orange 76 SS 350 four speed, loved it. So the Nova and the worst of the other ones. If I owned that many it would come down to body condition.

The 73 looks closer to the 70 model. 75 and up was the body change I believe. The worst rust would be the formula. Other than that, since it is so cal, there is virtually no rust or dents. Nova is the only one I can run without smog crap. All the rest have to be smog legal.

I would keep the Nova. 73 was the beginning of the "klunker" years, with having the impact bumpers. Style is just a little different from the 72 and older, but still better than the 74-up model.
