While I got my licence on that Dodge, I do slightly prefer the lines of the Mercury. Interesting choice John.

Dodge all the way for me.  The sleek lines makes it look like it is moving when standing still.

To my eye, the two-tone configuration on the Dodge is the most audacious of all '50s two-toning, so I'm going with that.

I voted Dodge. Both are overwrought, but the Dodge does it better for me.

Retired in Dunedin, Florida.

Well John B. another difficult choice to make. I pick the Mercury by the closest of margins but tomorrow it may be the Dodge.

There's no hesitation on my part. It only took me one look in one second and my choice is the Mercury.

Like both, but push come to shove, I'll take the MERCURY!

'56 Dodge was alright but the '56 Mercury I have always loved.

56 Montclair Rick Sidelonger

A friend had one just like this one.

A fan of both, but today it's the Mercury.
