I prefer the more understated tail fin of the Oldsmobile.

Jet tube tailfins on the Olds and its terrific livery win for me.

I like both!  I've always thought that General Motors hit the ball out of the park with their incredibly gorgeous '59's.  Especially the Pontiac, Oldsmobile, and Buick's.  They are fantasies on wheels! 

TONIGHT, this is a tough one, but will VOTE FOR THE BUICK by only the slightest margin over the Oldsmobile.  The Buick to my eyes has always been a "Batmobile"!  Na, Na, Na, Na, Na.....  Smile

Like George, I like both ! GM's 1959's were dramatic and good-looking cars.

Rocket theme on the Olds starts at the tips of the front fenders all the way to the taillights, love it.

I prefer the nose of the Olds and the tail end of the Buick and like both cars equally, so it's a rare tie for me.

Tough call...A buddy had a '59 Oldsmobile 98 HT, back in the day, so I'm going with the Oldsmobile.

BUICK! BUICK! BUICK! The Olds is nice, but it would never outshine the BUICK!
