IMO House trumps EVERYTHING . cars and parts can come later. We bought a really nice house here in Southern AZ. after the move. Car came about almost 2 years after. Wise man once told me good things come to those who wait. I waited nearly 15 years since last sold the car. ,,,,,,and felt that was long enough

Do you need to sell the stuff for money for the house or just in general? If you don't need the money for the house and you like selling stuff I'd keep doing it. If you want to sell to reduce the amount of junk you're moving in and for some extra cash flow I'd keep anything you might need for yourself and whatever is always going up in value and sell the rest. But I'm the kind of person who keeps anything I think I'll need unless I need the money or space more so I'm not the best person to offer advice. I've lost count of how many times I've gotten rid of certain parts and end up needing them later and either can't find them or cost a lot more then they when I got rid of them

You can sleep in your car, you cannot drive your house, He never said he was selling a car, just parts. If they're parts that you don't see yourself using, sell them.
Kayse can't keep up at all now. lol

The more you sell, the less you have to move... I had a 24x40 ft. shop in SO CA behind my house with a two car garage both full of car parts and stuff plus 27 cars. I sold most of the cars, several where parts cars that went to scrap yards, I moved three of my cars, no race cars, up here to Oregon in 2005 and bought one of my old cars back in 2009. I have nine toy cars now and around 6 complete newly built ready to sell pump gas motors that all make over 600 HP, 3 new race blocks and more extra parts than I need This house is bigger than the old house and we have no kids or other relatives living with us, it has a "pole barn" that is bigger than the old shop and it is now fuller also My message is your life style is determined by you and yours Life is a trip, enjoy the journey Make your life as god as you want it

Thanks guys for all youre responses.Were supposed to settle on the house at the end of next month so its coming up fast.I was going to take time with her to post more parts to sell but she said we dont have alot of time,theres so much to do,and we have so much to pack.She appreciates my selling of the car parts last year,she never pushed me into it,she likes and understands our car hobby.Shed like me to cut down our dvd collection and my beer stein collection though,and thin the mopar magazine herd alittle.Lol!We have alot to move not incuding car stuff but a 10 foot bar,barstools,4 china cabinets,3 dressers...etc...I dont even want to think about it i just gave my self a migraine lol.Were hiring movers this time.

Thanks, selling parts last year helped as she was out of for a few months.We dont have a long distance to move just alot of stuff.When we moved before it took family,freinds to help us and a 27ft moving truck and 3 trips back and forth about 50 minutes to our new place.And man was it pouring out.And we had to stretch it out almost 3 days between packing,unpacking and moving stuff.So this time were hiring a moving company as that move was rough even with everyone involved and using our old hemi truck too.So we did leave a few things behind,nothing worth alot and,sold off some things.So we want this move to go as good as possible.

Consider having an on site auction with an auction company. Everything disappears in 1 day. Then you just have to move the money. When you get to the new house, start accumulating stuff all over. You would want to pick out your most cherished possessions to exclude and move. I had an auction once from an auction house. They came and got all the stuff and hauled it to their place, where they had regular weekly auctions. It was easy. Some stuff went too cheap, some stuff went for stupid money, it all worked out on average.
