Got no opinion on these, I'm afraid. I was only 12 when they came out and I wasn't really into American cars at that stage. But I'm sure some of our older members will have fond memories of going on a honeymoon trip in one or the other.

But I will say that (based on these pics) I find the Plymouth more nicely proportioned, and I prefer the grille.

I like the Chevy's looks, especially the fenders. It wins.

@ed-glorius Too close for me, although a forced vote might have to go with the “gangster” look of the Plymouth.

Both surprisingly similar in overall appearance. And even though I don't usually care for the outside spare tire the Chevy looks better to me. Cleaner sides, better proportioned roof and I love the simplistic grill and wheels!

Plymouth for me. A beautifully styled car IMO.

The grill and front screen on the Plymouth make it my choice of this pairing.

Graeme professes to be 100 years old in his comment. If that is the case, he has certainly continued to show high acuity.

Too close to call for me. Though I find the cleanliness of the Chevrolet appealing; not so much as I'd discount the Plymouth. A tie.

I could say I'm not a fan of either, but after looking at then awhile, the PLYMOUTH seems to be a little more proportioned to my eyes.  The Chevy's top looks oddly shaped.

I did the math and got 92. I'll be 70 in January, so born 1955. These would have come out in fall 1935, so me plus 22. Mazel tov, Graeme!

I have seen the Ford of this year and built models of it, but this is the first time I have seen the Chevy and the Plymouth. I like them both equally.

Both are attractive cars but I prefer the nose of the Plymouth.
