Both are beautiful 1950's automobiles ! The Buick in a different color scheme reminds me of "Highway Patrol" with Broderick Crawford and the gorgeous Lincoln looks great and would certainly be changed for 1956.

For 1955, my family had a real 1:1 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air coupe and a '55 4-door Pontiac in two-tone blue.

Imagine two new-car buyers in 1955 driving them home from the dealership and pulling these two beauties into their respective driveways at the same time. Which one would all the neighbors flock to first to take a gander at? I'm gonna go with the Buick!

What Barry said!

Gents thanks for your responses!
