Default Do I fix my 1980 Impala or junk it

Hi to all. I'm a new member and here is my question: I have (and am driving them daily) two old GM cars:
1) 1980 Impala. Had it for 20 years. Great car!!!
2) 1986 Cutlass. Had it for 15 years. Also great.

Now, both of them are getting old to the point where I have two options: Spend some money on them, or junk yard.

What do you think?

Impalla most badly needs axhaust manifold repaired (fumes are getting into the cabin)

Cutlass needs new gas tank and gas lines, and frame is rusted towards back wheels.

Best regards to all.
