- Definitely the Chevelle for me. I think they were really good looking cats. The Ford - not so much.

@jcarnutz I agree John; the '62 to '64 Fairlane was a very nice looking and sporty little car. I have always thought that it didn't get the recognition it deserved. The '63 is my favorite of the three years.

I agree Jack. The '63 shares a lot of its styling cues with its big brother Galaxie, which I love.

@pete-rovero I agree about the common styling cues and I too love the '63 1/2 Galaxie 500XL; the roofline is killer. As you know the '63 Mercury Marauder also shares that feature.

'63 I like it
'64 I like it
'65 I dislike it

The sporty Chevelle for me. The Fairlane looks too much like a family car.
Gents, thanks for your replies.
