Unhappy When is enough enough and its time to junk the Car?....

Theoretically most of us could keep any car running for 2 million miles, but there comes a time!!! When is enough enough?
My 85 300D is a still a great car but the miscellaneous sounds, leaks, sagging springs and a few electrical faults, and now a ossible vacuum pump caused oil leak are driving me crazy... the car tracks straight, has great brakes, shocks, and AC and the vacuum system works....but yesterday morning i was up at 4 am working on it before work and when i came home at 6 pm, I was fixing something..yes, my neighbor saw me in the morning and night, which prompted him to laugh....
Anaybody gota good guidline on when to call it a day? I am tired of missing time with my family and daughter....yet, i gotta admit, i wont give up easy.........everytime i see a 300d on the road, it turns my head...
