I'll vote for the unpopular Dodge because it looks crazy and is much smaller.


Retired in Dunedin, Florida.

I too, voted for the DODGE.  It's a car that had to grow on me over the decades, and now I find it much better looking than the "plain" Ford.  That said, the '62 Ford was a masterpiece in styling compared to the previous year's '61 (in my opinion).

Beautiful Ford, against one of the C. C. early '60's butt ugly designs. '60 to '63 the only C.C. car I like the design of is the '62 Chrysler 300, '65 to '71 especially mid-size, I love.

I have always loved the look of the '62 Galaxie; the Dodge, although growing on me slowly in recent years, is no match.

I went with the conventional looking Ford, not sold on the looks of the Dart.

It hurts me to vote for Ford over a Mopar but it hurts my eyes even more to look at that Dodge...

Well the Dodge is unique and ugly. It is interesting to see one these days, but I'd never pick any early 60s Dodge over a Ford. The beautiful design of the '62 Ford wins easily.

I had to go with the Dart.  1, I prefer Mopars, 2, it was my older brothers First car and I had a lot of fond memories of the 2 of us going places after he got his license and this car.  His was a hardtop version.  I lost my older brother to Pancreatic Cancer in 2010.  So this was nice to see and look back.  Thanks,

The '62 Dodge....an acquired taste....yes, I voted for it. I'm a longtime fan, but I love the Ford too.

Tough one for me because I actually like the Dodge in the picture better than the Ford.  But when I thought about which car I would rather have in my garage it came down to the Ford.
