'61 front, '60 rear. I actually like the '62 Chrysler best. Vote tie todat.
I was upset when I saw the '62 Chrysler neutered. Without those beautiful fins, it wasn't a Chrysler anymore.
Personally I much prefer the tail end of the '62. Most of the American car makers had moved on from the fin era at this point and I thought Chrysler made a smart and economically astute move by doing this relatively easy change to go with the new styling direction for '62.

We differ in that opinion. I thought it was refreshing that Chrysler still had the fins in 1961, but then in 1962 the car was completely stripped of them and I wasn't happy. Guess you can read this, as my being a fan of fins, and that would be true. I liked them because each car had an identity of its own. Different strokes for different folks. Bottom line is, we agree on loving old cars.

Completely agree with you, Jack. In a very cost-efficient manner, Chrysler was able to change an out-of-favor design into one fully competitive with its chief rival, Buick, for '62.

1960 is my favorite. I love the front end and the boomerang taillights. Then 1961 and 1959.

This is tough, '61, '60, '59.
