I like the Ford for its relatively clean lines, the design winner at the Brussels World Fair.


Retired in Dunedin, Florida.

I’m giving a slight edge to the Fury.  Would take either one home.  😎✌️

I owned and loved the 1957 Ford Fairlane 500 and was disappointed in the '58 and '59's. Apparently I never got over it. Going with the slender and sexy Sport Fury today.

The Plymouth takes my vote today.  The Ford just looks boxy to me.

I never cared for the 59 Ford after the beautiful 57. For years I never gave Plymouths a second thought due to their propensity for rusting. Then a few years ago I had the chance to buy an extremely low mile 59 Fury. I loved the style of the Fury but didn't buy it because of other obligations at the time. Today I still think about that Fury with fond memories although I have no idea whether it would have been any better quality wise. Based on style alone, Fury.

Not fond of either, so a tie for me. I would not kick either out of my garage.

For me, this was an easy vote for the Ford.

Going with the Plymouth...I had a convertible from around '62 - '64. No rust on it during my ownership.

I much prefer the more conservative styling of the Ford.  In my part of the world the 1959 Plymouth was very prone to rusting out.
