Still looking pretty much like Stagecoaches, I've got no interest.

I’ve always thought that the ‘33, 34 Ford was and is one of the most iconic styles from the ‘30’s, so I vote Ford, Chevy, and lastly Plymouth. I do have to admit though that I’ve never seen dual side mounts on a ‘34 Ford.

Ford for me too. It may be comparatively agricultural, but none of these are technologically forward, and it's the prettiest. Chevy is close.

My choice is the Ford, followed by the Chevy and the Plymouth last.

Ah, my favorite - cars of the 30's. Easily, the Ford & Plymouth are the nicest on the eye. The Plymouth is far more rare to see in that condition.

For beauty, alone, I'm ranking them from 1ts to 3rd - Ford, Plymouth and then a close 3rd to Chevrolet.

For me, the Ford is a no-brainer. What surprised me was how long I lingered over the Plymouth. Without the pictures, I would have voted Ford, Chevrolet, Plymouth. But after a closer look, I put the Plymouth in second place.

My possible lone vote is for the Plymouth not only for it's looks but also it's technical advances including hydraulic brakes. I have always loved the style of the Ford but in this case, it looks stupid with those side mounted tires sticking up in the air.

No real interest, too old for me, my father would have loved them.  This is the order I prefer, Plymouth, Ford, Chevrolet. Voting for the Plymouth.

I really like this era but tend to the more exotic.  Of the three here, I feel that the Plymouth is the most advanced. The Side mounts on the Ford really put me off. In order of choice today, Plymouth, Chevrolet, then Ford.

The '34 Ford was available with side mount spares from the factory.  The side mounts on the Ford pictured could be "after market." We all know by now what the old lady says, just in case you need a reminder...

“Everybody to their taste,” said the old lady as she kissed the cow.

Not a fan of 1930s and earlier cars.  I guess I got turned off cause there are too,many pieces that can come off the models.  

All that said the Plymouth looks formal almost regal compared to Ford and Chevy.  I still vote for Plymouth.

I voted a tie as they all look the same, and I really do not have any interest in Pre-40's.

@bob-jackman You're not alone, Bob.  The Plymouth is my favorite.
