1954 was a great year for color which these three attest to. I like all three but my picks are Chevrolet, Ford and Plymouth.

1954 Chevy Bel Air is probably my favorite 1954 car. When FM offered their diecast in my favorite color for that car I couldn't get my order in fast enough. Still one of my favorites.

I like the Ford. It looks more modern and lithe than the others. Chevy second.

For me, the Chevy and the Ford are interchangeable favorites.  That put's the Plymouth 2nd.  How's that for new math?  Smile

This is one of my favorite Franklin Mint models.  I also have the Black version and also the two convertibles in Red and Gray respectively.  I don't see any flaws in them, EXCEPT the dash.  It's tilted downward.  Alas though, a minor issue I can deal with.

All three are beautiful Fifties cars in great colors ! I have a 1954 and 1953 Bel Air in 1/18th from SunStar and some 1953 1/18 Fords from Welly, but for real my Dad had a 1953 Bel Air and my Grandfather had a 1952 Ford ...... all really nice vehicles and among the earliest I remember getting a ride in.
