Of this trio, I very much like the Mercury Montclair. While I think the GM Pontiac and Chevrolet are great cars, I'm not as keen on their larger cousins.

Buick for me. I think it looks the best, plus I love its color scheme.


Retired in Dunedin, Florida.

The Buick for me……Had a brace of’em back in the 60s loved them! A bright red Special and a silver over Grey Roadmaster….

The Buick, although a little dated by 57, still looks great. 👍

I VOTE BUICK!  I really like all three, with Chrysler being a sentimental favorite, being as my Dad owned just like the one featured.  And I like Mercury only because it was so radically different for '57 from anything else offered by the Big Three.  But that BUICK with that rear split window just steals my vote.

And a comment on the MERCURY...  I have forever been confused why some states would not allow dual headlights in '57 when they were introduced by Ford Motor Co. and Chrysler Corp.  So sometimes you see their cars year with just "one" headlight on each side and other times you see "dual" headlights on both sides.  Talk about the United States NOT being UNITED!  I asked my Dad when I was a kid back then, "So what happens if the owner of a car with dual lights drives to a state where DON'T allow them?"  What a dumb law!

Tough, tough choice today. Went with the Chrysler over the Buick but the Mercury is a very close third place. No losers among these three!

Buick styling wins this one hands down.  Chrysler and the single headlight Mercury tie for a distant second.

Yep, I went with the Chrysler, but the Buick was close.

I believe I voted the Buick as #1 by mistake. I love the Chrysler 1st. Buick, which I absolutely love is 2nd. Sorry for my mistake but I still had the Herb Alpert cover album on my mind.
