Both are gorgeous muscle cars from that era. I have a black Ertl Authentics 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle in1/18, although in the Ford line up, I have a three Yat Ming mid-size Mercury Cyclones in that scale. They are all favorites and display exceptionally well.

I owned that Chevelle in convertible form and miss it to this day. Both are fine cars but Chevrolet is my pick here.

We owned a gold 66 Chevelle and loved that car. Never a problem - Chevrolet for the win.

I like the Ford's looks and proportions.
Retired in Dunedin, Florida.

I like them both, but I like the Ford a little more. My grandfather had a 66 Fairlane GTA. It was the same color as this diecast but had a matching interior color.

The Ford, in yet anotehr squeaker!

Both are terrific. I picked the Chevrolet because it shared the same body of our first new car, a 1966 Buick Skylark GS 400 which we dearly loved.

Ford for me. Like the styling more so than the Chevelle.

This one is very close but generally speaking I prefer the Chevelle styling to that of the Fairlane in the '65 thru '72 era.

Both beautiful, I'll take the Fairlane please.

Ford. I like the styling better, including the stacked headlights.

It's a tie for me. 2 of my all time favorites.😁
