Chrysler this time. My father-in-law had a black one with red upholstery. It blew me away. The instrumentation looked like something from a spaceship.

Chrysler, but neither would be list toppers for me.


Retired in Dunedin, Florida.

This one is real easy.  The CHRYSLER!  

With the exception of Chevrolet, I was not a fan of General Motors 1961 cars, while I Chrysler Corporation on the other hand, to my eyes, hit home runs.

I like the crisper styling of the Buick in 61.  Opposite for the next year though.

Chrysler is alright but I prefer the Buick styling [never thought I would say that]. '62 Would be the Chrysler for sure, as would the the '59.  '60 & '61 are Buick for me.

Buick for 61 was a beauty but Chrysler knocked it outa the park this year with those canted headlights and fantastic fins!

The Chrysler is nice, but the '61 Buick is the car I took and passed my road test with on the first try back in 1961.

As already stated, in 1961 I'd go for Buick, but for '62 it would have been the Chrysler.
