Plymouth.  I find the entire front end squarer and cleaner:  almost getting towards ponton styling, (overlooking side mouldings).

I voted tie.  I have always been a fan of the Ford.   This my first time seeing the Plymouth and the Chevy. I like them all.

John, you outdid yourself yet again! The Chevy is Special Deluxe in every way, but a tiny bit dated. It will be 1941 until it has the embedded headlights, integral to the body like the Ford and Plymouth have for this year, 1940. The Ford is an iconic and familiar beauty. The Plymouth, though somewhat plain-looking in this paint color, would benefit tremendously in a green shade like the other two. Because of its nose and downright handsome looks, I vote Plymouth first and a tie for Chevy & Ford.

The Ford is too pretty not to get my vote. Tie for the other two.

I like all three and choices may vary for me by the hour. Currently, I prefer the more classic front fenders of the Chevrolet and Ford so I choose, Chevrolet, Ford, then Plymouth.

This one took me awhile to decide.  The Ford always catches my eye when I see one, but then the Chevy and Plymouth are lookers too.  So what to do?  It's simple, I vote one of my rare TIES!  All three would be welcome in my driveway or on my car shelf.  TIE!

I love all three so I let the color decide...Ford. Chevy and Plymouth tied for second.

@perrone1 I agree with your comments about the headlight integration (or lack thereof).  I gave the edge to the Ford by a hair over the Plymouth, mainly for its V-8 power.  Chevy would win in '41 though.
