Both are beautiful early-Fifties American full-size highway cruisers. My Dad had a 1953 2-door Chevrolet automobile.

One of the easiest ones for me yet, the Olds by a country mile!

The Merc is more to my liking; and gets my vote. But the Olds is pretty darn nice too.

The Mercury is sleeker.
Retired in Dunedin, Florida.

Mercury please. The only Olds I like in the '50's is the '57. Love Mercury '51 - '56.

Mercury. Last of the Flatheads.

Should be no surprise to all here, my vote goes for the OLDSMOBILE. I will say though, that the Mercury is a looker and I wouldn't turn it down.

Mercury, much more modern looking.

I am quite surprised; I thought this one would be close!
