As much as I like Buicks, the Chrysler takes my vote today. When Chrysler clipped the wings of it's cars, I became an immediate fan.

The Wildcat looks good but, to my eye today, the 300H takes the spotlight! Chrysler please John!

Two more excellent choices. I'm going with the Chrysler today because who can pass on this?

A cockpit like this really pushes my buttons. (In a GOOD way!) Smile

OMG!  For me this one was so easy!  BUICK by a landside! 

When Chrysler neutered their car for '62, it became a naked look for the brand after their beautiful '60 and still '61.  That Chrysler just looks chopped and awful without its wings. 

So yea, BUICK all the way here folks with no hesitation!

The '62 Chrysler 300 is my favorite Chrysler of its decade.  I liked the previous two years of this car but  loved it when they did away with the fins, which were due to go IMHO.  The interior is really attractive as well.  The Buick is a very nice looking car but I much prefer the shoulder years of this marque.

I like it John, but I can pass on it for THIS!  The Wildcat dash is equally beautiful.

Two good-looking, "handsome" cars. Chrysler's stylists did a fantastic job of making its 3-year old body fully competitive with its Buick equivalent for '62 and I give them my kudos with my vote!
