This one is tough, my first car was a ‘55 Buick, but that’s not my #1 choice. I’m Pontiac through and through, but aside from the suspenders, I think it’s kind of ugly. (Sorry Geno) The Caddy is real classy, I like looking but wouldn’t own one.
1-Chevy for it’s clean, classic lines.
2-Olds.. gorgeous
3-Buick.. nostalgia
4-Caddy.. it’s a shame I’m going to be cremated, alway’s wanted to ride in one!
5-Poncho, the homely Injun.
I like all of these General Motors beauties from 1955, although our family had a 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air and a 1955 Pontiac. The Pontiac was especially long-lasting and after some years, an aunt of mine and her husband continued to use the two-tone Pontiac.
Naturally, iconic Chevy (1), Oldsmobile (2), Buick (3) Pontiac (4), Cadillac (5).
Personal experiences will play invaluable roles in each person's picks here I think. For me it's Cadillac, Buick, Chevy, Olds & Pontiac.
For me, Chevrolet, Cadillac, Buick, Oldsmobile, Pontiac.
@perrone1 I agree Tony. I think all of the divisions offerings were terrific for 1955. My dad bought a 1955 Pontiac Star Chief Convertible and the memories I have of that car make it a favorite in my mind and I love the paint divide far better than the rest.
The clean Chevy first, then Cadillac, Oldsmobile, Buick, and Pontiac.
Retired in Dunedin, Florida.
The only one I like is the best looking ever, Chevy.
Chevy love it
Oldsmobile is alright
Pontiac & Buick [tie] leaves bit to be desired
Cadillac yuck
For me GMC other than the '55 Chevy did not make a car I liked the styling of until '57 and then I liked them all.
The '50's styling IMO:
'48 to '54 Hudson ruled
'55 & '56 FoMoCo ruled
'57 GMC ruled
'58 & '59 nobody ruled.
Buick. My grandfather had a 55.
Chevrolet, Pontiac followed by the rest as a tie. GM design from 1955 to 1957 was quite good in my opinion.
OLDSMOBILE! A no-brainer for me on this Which One?. Inside and out, it's a styling dream.
2. Cadillac 3. Chevrolet 4. Buick 5. Pontiac
