The '56. It's the merrier of the two, imo.

John, send me the building plans when you're through. I'm quickly running out of space.

The '53 is nice, but it's no competition for the '56.

I like both but the ‘56 had a lot more power.

A New York State Trooper told me the fastest car they had chased on the NY Thruway was a ?56 Olds. It would get past roadblocks faster than they could set them up.
