While the Ford is more representative of the 1950s while the Plymouth is more 1960s, in this case, I'd rather be driving the Ford.

I see it the other way, David. But, we both agree on the Ford.

Loved the 57 Ford but by 59, not so much. Never thought much about the 59 Plymouth until a few years ago and now I like them. Plymouth for me.

My vote goes to the FORD. I was disappointed by the Plymouth's in '59 and '60.

Like Stephen King, I choose the Plymouth. (Although Christine was a 58)

I never liked the '59 Ford. Not one of my favorite years for Plymouth but I vote for it today.

I have always liked the 59 Ford styling over Plymouth but no connie please. I had a 59 Meteor 2dr. (Canadian Ford sold by Mercury Division) and loved it.

Since I had a '59 Sport Fury Convertible, way back when, the Plymouth gets my vote.
