Cadillac by far for beautiful modern design and better engine.

Caddy for me.

Chrysler for me. The Caddy looks old and dated in comparison.

Caddy please.

Cadillac is far more modern-looking but the Chrysler is the one I want in my garage!

Hmm....I prefer Buick from 48 and Chrysler from 41....
there's just no pleasing some people! You've taken the trouble to post these John and I've ridden roughshod over both of them!

I like the big heavy paper weight look of the Chrysler. The Highlander edition with the Tartan interior looks pretty nice.
I suppose that in some ways it's also a choice between an OHV V8 and a long strocking side valve 8.

Bruce, I'm being nitpicky, but the '48 Cadillac still had the flathead V8, '49 switched to the OHV.

Not a problem, John. How boring the world would be if we all liked the same things.
