Not a big fan of any but the front end of the 57 is pretty sharp.

This one only difficult for me choosing between the '55 and the '56.  Between them, by a thin margin, the '56 wins.  As for the '57, I'm going to follow my grandma's sage advice and say nothing.

Thank you George, for saying nothing about the '57. Ha ha. I don't really like any of them.  I drove both back in the day and my impression of them the '57 was a world ahead of the '56 for comfort & handling. The '56 just felt older, I know by one year.

For me it's the '55 ,'56 then '57.  Extremely close but the '57 lost some ground because of build quality that year.

I'm also going with 1955, 1956 and 1957. Got to drive all three back in the day.  Liked the look of the 1957 back then but it was not well built and "creaked" when driven, likely because of poor body fit. The first two of my choices seemed virtually the same in both looks and drive.

The 57, and a tie for the 55 & 56.  The design change for the 57 makes it stand out over all the rest.
