Dodge for me in '56; love the styling even though it is a bit dated.  I do like the '56 Olds but prefer the nose of the '54 & '55 Olds to this year.

Color me OLDSMOBILE!  The '56, bumper to bumper with those bullet taillights and that open-mouth grille are eye-catching from miles away.  Get inside it and that oval to oval instrument panel is so easy on your eyes as well.  And the two-tone paint scheme flows so nicely.  Not to mention that sitting side-by-side to the Dodge, the Olds looks years newer.

Dodge for me too, but I had to spend a fair amount of time deciding! Ultimately the Exner styling prevailed.

Retired in Dunedin, Florida.

I also particularly like that Dodge Royal Lancer. I took my driving test in the hardtop version.

Dodge for me but if the Olds was a 98 it would win.

I'll have to go with the Olds on this selection.  It is bolder and makes a great stance.

This is a tough choice for me as well. I bounced back and forth for a bit between these two. A several back-and-forth moments, I'll choose the Oldsmobile, I like the two-tone style a little more.
