To me these fall between two stools. Neither the best of the old nor the new. I like them, but voted no interest.

Never having been a fan of that Studebaker styling, and the fact that by 1960 it was dated, I go with the THUNDERBIRD!

I'm sure if I had a choice when they were new, I would have gone with the T-Bird. But looking back and seeing how long that Studebaker stayed in production, I think I'll now go with the Studebaker.

I will go with the Thunderbird but if the Studebaker was a Golden Hawk it would have won.

I still like the “square bird”👍. The 53 Studabaker was beautiful but like George said that style dated by 1960 although still a cool looking car.

Never liked the square birds. The Golden Hawk has such great design.
