John, they are both nice but there’s no way I would ever give up or pass on that Plymouth so it is my choice !! I absolutely love it, I love everything about it as it dared to be so different from everything else on the road. I love that “swoop” on the fender and the way the trim follows the rocker panel and ends in the trim behind the tire. I liked it even when I first saw it at 7yrs young. 🤣

Dodge for me. The Plymouth, at the time, was notorious for its styling and in particular that sculpture around the front wheel. It was known to scoop up stray flying birds, walking birds such as sea gulls, small children and dogs and cats. On many other occasions it scooped up small children when mother did not have them leashed up and several are still missing.
I like small kids and animals, therefore my vote HAS to be the Dodge.
The 59 Plymouth is a favorite of mine but the 60 is not. The fins and front fender touches just never appealed to me. Dodge.
Plymouth for its outrageous style.
Retired in Dunedin, Florida.
No interest. They both are unattractive to me. Also the Fury is an appropriate name, it looks pissed off.
I like the nose and paint better on the Plymouth, so that is where my vote went.
Never cared much for either but I vote Plymouth by just a hair.
Dodge for me. Saying the Plymouth is fugly is being kind.🤢🤮 JMHO though. 😁
A rare tie for me. I really like them both.
Hate the Plymouth styling.
Like the Dodge.
Tie! I like em both. Transition year but interesting. Plymouth like the scoops, last year of fins forever, chrome on the bottom back panel, the grimacing grill and I think this was the year they tried the oblong steering wheel. The dodge taillights are the beginning of dodge using round taillights for a few years, I like the grill and the side design trying to keep fins but trim them. I like both colors but Plymouth looks so much better in red.
Did not care for either one when they were new. Now when you look at them they are pretty sharp considering the styling that they went into the design. For the older guys we
did not know to expect from year to year. Cars were always covered up until show day. Today they don't change much outside as they do inside now. The quality inside is improved quite a bit. It's a tie for me.
Plymouth for it's more contemporary (for its time) space age styling.
