I like the colors! Today's cars are too often bland (including the two in my driveway).

The Bonneville is very nice. Best of the lot.

Tough call but the Bonneville because of the color and eight lug wheels. It was the 56 Chevy until I got to the last picture.

I can't pass on the Hudson. The car is from a different time from the others featured here making anything 1940's an easy choice.

I like them all except the '60 Caddy and the Toronado. "56 Bel Air is best.

Paint colors make the 50's and to a lesser degree the 1960's now we are offered cars in various shades of Mist on the Mountains grey - bland as can be. Paint colors make the 50's and to a lesser degree, but also paint pallet exceptional in variety, the 1960's and 70's. But nothing beats the 1950's for exuberant color.

The '60 Eldo is awesome, imo. It sold in 2108 for $154k @ Barrett Jackson Palm Beach.

I wish I could afford the DM replica. It's one of three on my 1:24 diecast bucket list: this Biarritz, it's Seville sibling, plus the 1956 Roadmaster convertible. Like an idiot, I passed on all when they were offered by DM. Now they are way out of my reach. Oh well...
