Today I’m giving very slight edge to Chevy over the Ford, would love either one. The Plymouth is pretty cool also. What a great year! 😎

Chevrolet, Ford, then Plymouth but all are cars that I appreciate.

Ford 1st, the Bel Air is closely behind and then Plymouth. But to be honest, I'd really take any of them.

I love them all but prefer the beautiful Ford; it is my favorite Ford of that decade by far. The Chevy and Plymouth follow closely in that order. I just love the trim designs that accommodate the 2-tone paint application so well....and all three are quite different!

John, you picked fabulous examples of all 3!
Given my propensity for Mopars, I go with the Plymouth, in that color especially!

This one was a little tougher than I thought it would be. I voted this way: 1) Ford 2) Chevrolet 3) Plymouth.
I like the Ford because of the nice improvements from the '55. The grill is more attractive and I like the parking lights better. Also, the best improvement was the dash on the '56 Ford. As for the Chevy, of the "Tri-Chevy's", I've always liked the '56 the best. Finally, the Plymouth fell in to third place because of the fins. I didn't care for them then, and still don't think they look right today.
Had it been a '55 Plymouth, voting would have been a little tougher for me. In fact, if all three were '55's, my voting would have been like this: 1) Plymouth 2) Chevy 3) Ford. Oh the difference a year makes.
