Dodge, it is a little more up scale and I don't care for the side styling on the Plymouth.

I'll vote Dodge please. (Terrific exercise in same-company/different brand choice John!)
To my eye, it is cleaner. I like the subtle color breaks better than the big, bold change of colors on the sides of the Plymouth.
The tri-tone of the Dodge suits me somewhat better than the two-toning of the Plymouth.

I too went with the Dodge, but the Plymouth was close. I liked the two tone on the sides and the breaks. To me it makes it stand out. But the Dodge with the 2 tone on the hood and down the top portion of the sides makes it a winner.

Close, but I prefer the Plymouth's styling.

I like both cars very much but prefer the nose and tail end styling of the Dodge; plus the tri-color and trim of the Dodge is nicer. Very close one today though.

Here they are (almost) in 1:43. I don't have the Plymouth in a hardtop although I would like to get one of the hardtops for my convertible that were used in the recent BRK '55 Plymouth that can be displayed either as a hardtop or convertible.

I'm with Ed on choosing the Plymouth. I don't like the front end on the Dodge, especially that "toothy" chrome bar. I also don't like the hood design. And, I do prefer the side-styling on the Plymouth. Thanks for these interesting choices John 👍

I’ll go along with what Tony said and choose the Dodge.

I usually go with the more upscale marque, but the forward slope of the Plymouth's front fenders gives it a dynamic look of moving ahead so I voted for it today.

They are both beautiful Chrysler Corporation automobiles at the early part of Exner's "fin design era" there. When I was little I recall I had a 1/25 promo, I believe, of the Dodge and presently I have a couple of 1/64ths of the Dodge and two 1/32nds of the Plymouths.

The Plymouth is nice but the Dodge is more to my liking.
