Hard to choose definitely a tie. They are both beauties.
The fin era at Chrysler produced some beautiful automobile, as these two examples show.
Two cars I like a lot. Given the choice between the two just as they sit here, I pick the tri-color, single headlight 1956 New Yorker!
Oh, you STAY on top of your game my man!! Excellent 'Which' John!!
1956 for me.

Both are stunning automobiles, but a slight edge to the '56 for me as well.🤑
Like both but the 1956 is certainly the most attractive.
I like both for different reasons. Going back and forth between them, I've decided to vote a rare TIE.

'57 please. Both beautiful, '57 by an rch.
The '56 styling is far more attractive IMHO; the '57-'58 never did anything for me.
Gotta go with the 57 as my Mom had a 57 New Yorker Sport Coupe. BUT, the 55 & 56 Chryslers are among my favorite cars of all time.
...absolutely no contest, 1957 all the way! The '56 is sharp and better built, but oh those '57 fins! 😎 😎
I think the New Yorker was the best looking ‘56 Chrysler, and is my choice.

I vote 300B for best looking Chrysler in 1956.
