Total Variance in Subjective Value is 40, out of a possible 125, with the '57 Stratocaster providing more Utility at 35 points, versus only 5 points for the '57 Chevy Bel Air ... I would spend my discretionary cash on the '57 Strat ... that is if I had any discretionary cash ...  before considering the '57 Chevy.

The Chevy is too high maintenance, and you can't pawn it.
