@david-green Actually that was the 1959.
Chevy for me. Like Jack said, the 1957 and 1959 Ford would have won over the Chevy, but to me the 1958 Ford was a mess.

That's so funny. I think the '58 Ford was a a masterpiece in style and certainly much better than the '57.

This was a tough one for me to vote on. I like both cars for '58 a lot. But when push comes to shove, I voted for the CHEVY! I'd take a '58 Ford though, in a heartbeat. As I stated above in another post, I think its styling was a masterpiece. Loved it!

Impala. in 1957 I thought Ford did a masterful job of styling then in 1958 they started messing it up IMO.

As I mentioned earlier, I did like the '58 Ford for sure but thought the boxier looking nose and the one-year only tail light design detracted somewhat compared to the 57 and 59 features. I always loved the trademark single round Ford tail light done '52 thru '63, except '58 and '60.
