I like the look of the Galaxy best of the three. I like the Chevy overall but not a fan of that flat faced front end in 64.

Plymouth because it's smaller. I don't care much for how the other two look.

Retired in Dunedin, Florida.

My tastes have changed somewhat over the years. I find the Fury suits me best because of its more compact size and slightly stiffer suspension.

FORD all the way for me.

The Chevy went south in styling (to my eyes) after the beautiful '62's, but would rebound in '65.

The Plymouth was still recovering from the weird looking '62 and after a slight improvement in '63.

The FORD did a complete turn-a-round after the dismal looking '61 with a nicely styled '62 and '63, with the '64 hitting a home run.

I'm in complete agreement with George on this one. Ford!

I love the look of all three but give the nod to Chevy, with Ford and Plymouth tied for second. The Plymouth Fury had really improved its exterior and interior looks for 64 and would again in the following few years.

The Impala and Galaxie are amazing, a slight edge to the Impala. The Fury is nice, but third place to the others.

I went with a tie. I like all 3. Hard for me to choose.

I like all of them, but the Super Sport is my #1 pick followed by the Ford and Plymouth.

@frank I agree with Frank. I never cared for the flat faced 54 Chevy.

Plymouth: looks light and fast, Ford: Looks heavy and fast, Chevy: Just looks bland by comparison. But just-you-wait till next year.
