I owned a '59 Chevy, loved it and the styling.  But if I could have any '59 it would a BUICK.  It, to my eyes, was nicest looking '59 for the Big Three.

1959 Buick

TIE though they are styling opposites, for what they are they are each good.

In '59 I would have bought;

Love them both.... but nod to Chevrolet ONLY because of Ford's reverse hood - yes, yes... I know it's a "safety thing,"  but I just never liked it.

 

Hi Chris, what's this "safety thing" you mentioned ? I'm ignorant on this. Thanks.

H E and double hockey sticks here.. YES..the Impala !!!  I've mentioned it before but my dad bought a brand new '59 Impala in white with the blue multi-hued interior. I was 6yrs old and I thought that was the most beautiful car I had ever seen. I did like the red and white 55 olds that he traded in but that Impala was the "future" to me.

I love the quirky 59 Impala. The Ford was a step down from the beautiful 57 IMO.

What Bob said!

Gents, thanks for the pics and responses.
