Coupe-wise, I'll take the Ford. Station wagon - CHEVY all day long. It's the center pillar and sexy-styled roof that sets the Bowtie apart!

@perrone1 Tony, you took the words right out of my finger typing.  I agree 100%.

Nomad. 55,56 and 57 all three are outstanding.

@bob-jackman I agree Bob J.; for wagons there's just no beating the tri-5 Nomads.....but the Pontiac Safaris are a close second IMHO.  For me the best Ford wagon of that era was the '56 Park Lane....just gorgeous!

I actually like the Ford Park Lane wagons better than the Tri-5 Chevy's.  For sure though, the '55 Nomad is the worst looking of the trio.  Those cut out open wheel wells just don't flow for my eyes.

The DelReo is nice but no way can it compete with the sleek and stylish Nomad.

@jack-dodds Agreed Jack, the 56 Parklane was a great wagon. I should have included the Safari with the Nomads.
