Thanks John, no hesitation from me today...the Ford 👍

Especially in the Country Squire version. Sometimes I just love a nice station wagon.

I agree with Steve on this one preferring Ford's looks in 1967.

I like both almost equally. But I LOVE the subtle curves of the SS427 somewhat more. Take that vinyl top off and Hubba, Hubba!!

I like the Ford's looks better, but not enough to cause to pass on the 427 Chevy.

I went with the Ford also. IMO full size American automobile styling was on the downslope after 1966, although I love the looks of the 1971-72 giant GMs.


Retired in Dunedin, Florida.

Ford wins this one easily for me.  I loved the design of the stacked headlight Galaxie from '65 thru '67.  It was a much crisper and leaner looking full size car.  The beautiful '65 Impala was almost an equal that year but by '67 its looks did not compare IMHO.

@perrone1 Tony, I have to agree with you, but there was something about the Chevy that I did not like, probably the vinyl roof like you said.  Your image might have swayed me, but I love the vertical lights and the sleekness of the Ford for 67.

67 Chevy SS for me, still looking good in 67. 👀 That Ford is sharp though.  ✌️😎👍

I agree with you Tony it looks so much better without a vinyl top. The sweeping roof line is just perfect.
