I voted Ford, if it had been a Dodge Coronet, I love them but the Plymouth lacks something until the '70 model. I know the Dodge & the Plymouth are the same mechanically but a bit more class in the Dodge [2" longer & 200 lbs heavier and a nicer interior].

Chose this because I put a lot of enjoyable miles on one owned by my father. 1969 Chevelle. Owned a two seater sportscar at the time but needed a family car for a Summer holiday.

A three- way tie for me.

I'm with you, Ed. That body style was so clean and modern for 1969!

I went with the Torino GT but the margin is very close for all three.

The 1969 is my favorite Chevelle SS and a tie for 2nd place between Ford and Plymouth.

Plymouth by a nose. Lots of great cars in the late 60s and early 70s. Too bad these years are still neglected in 1/43.

Mark; As you may know, Goldvarg did the Ford. Altaya (a much cheaper brand but fairly well done for the price) has done a number of the muscle and pony cars of the 60-70s, including some AMC and I bought most of them as fillers for the time being. Quite a range...from Roadrunner to Javelin to even the Yenko Stinger Vega!...(had to have that one...lol.) I am surprised at the quality of detail for the price range. You can find them on ebay; search Altaya American cars 1:43 for info. There is a seller price range (reasonable to ridiculous) as usual but they can be bought for $25 to $40 easily. FYI if this is of interest to you.
