Mercury. I love those taillights! My Uncle had a '62 Colony Park with those same taillights, even on the station wagon version.

Not bad at all. Both nice but I slightly prefer the Mercury.

@carsman1958, a good point. But that's pretty much true for any manufacturer of that era. Isn't it?

I prefer the cleaner lines of the Ford. The Mercury looks like a Ford with tacked on “styling” pieces just to be able to differentiate it from it’s cousin, rather than to enhance it’s style

But it's those "noses and tails" are all we have to go with when the cars are basically the same. So in this instance, it is the MERCURY'S "nose and tail", make it my choice.

I like the overall look of the Ford best.
