This was a tough one. I love the Hudson styling up to this year, but against the Buick, I voted BUICK.

Not a fan of the Buick but I do have a warm spot for the soon to be gone Hornet.

Considering that my very first car ride - home from the hospital when I was born in 1955 - was in my parents' '53 Buick Special (in this color combo but a 4-door sedan), it has to get my vote!

I want to pick the Hudson because I love the look of the '53, but that is a gorgeous Buick and I love that style. A very tough choice...
I think I picked Buick, I went back and forth and I know I hit one-but then I had to walk away and not sure which I picked for sure. Umm, tired morning, waiting for the coffee to kick in.

What a memory, down to the color even. LOL
Never cared for Buicks but loved Hudsons '48 to '54.

I am going with the Buick HT styling today but if they were both 2dr. sedans I would pick Hudson by a nose.

53 Buick styling was to me just classic,like Hudson’s but in this case gotta choose the Buick...

Very, very close call. Hudson in this case. If the Buick were a Super or Roadmaster it would be Buick with Buick's first V8.

I love any car that was born the same year as me and still looks as good as I do..ha ha..chuckle chuckle...
My choice is the Hudson.
Thank-you John !

No contest. I'd really rather have the Buick.

an underworld, caricature-ishly portrayed criminal, would more likely arrive in the Hudson......my hands are tied on this one...HUDSON
