In chronological order, especially in these colors. 1955 got it right straight out of the box.


Retired in Dunedin, Florida.

In this the rear view my order is '55, '56, '57 in a front view it would be '57, '55, '56

 

Wow, the '55 that I love the styling of with the color is kinka ugly to me; while the '56 that I don't care for looks great in the red color.  If I had the money or skill I would build a '55 body with the '57 front end & dash board, my feelings on the tri-fives.

I’m going with 1956, 1955, then 1957 but I love all three.

NEVER liked the odd looking wheel opening's on the '55.  The whole rear end looks off because of them.  My favorite of these three has always been the '56.  The '57 is next.

The '55 for its open rear wheel openings and its egg crate grille. The '56 and '57 in a tie for the #2 spot.

@sizedoesmatter, Yes! The wheel openings! They make the design contemporary and non-derivative.

If these were any of the other body styles it would be 55,56, then 57.  Regarding the Nomad body style however I must vote a 3-way tie, which I have never done before.  I absolutely love them all equally.
