I like all three, but the '58 takes the honors for me!  Then the '56 followed by the '57.

My preference is the 1956 with the 1957 close behind. I was very disappointed at the 1958 model and can see why it was completely redesigned in 1959.

'57 please.  '55, '57, '58, '56 or the '55 body with the '57 front clip & dash would make my perfect '50's Chevy.

The '56 for me. I don't care for the others. Now, if it was a '58 Pontiac.... that'd be different !

1956, 1958, 1957...the latter is overexposed.

1956...'57 then '58 in that order, but I love them all.  The '55 is my fave of this decade, then these three.

I love the '56 and if this was between the '55, '56 & '57, I'd go with it 1st, but with factoring in the '58, it takes the win, no contest here. Followed by the '56 and in a very distant 3rd, the '57.

I like the way you worded your vote rationale.  I'm with you!  That '58, I thought was the style leader of General Motors 1958 line-up.  It had one of the most attractive and eye-catching rear-ends of (in my opinion) any fifties American car.  It just flowed so nicely, and though I'm not a fan of continental kits on cars, I think the '58 was able to pull off wearing one better than most every other car.  With regard to the "Tri-Five" Chevy's, I like the '56 the best of the three, followed by the '55.  As for the '57, it's nice, but so over-exposed at old car shows, I usually just walk right by them.

'56 has always been my all-time favorite Chevrolet! But of these choices- '56, '58 and then the '57!

Cousin had a brand new '56 that he customized and that did it for me.

'58 for me. Without badges, to my eye it could pass for a Cadillac!
