Both are wonderful but the 49 has got the coolness to it.

Love that 1949 Ford! Having driven both of these, I must say that the 1949 Ford was a vast improvement in handling and drivability. Ground breaking design change also.

The 49 styling is much nicer but I like the '48 as well.

Judging strictly for style, the 49. The 49s were plagued with lots of quality problems which were corrected in the following year.

I went with the 49.  My Dad had a 50.

The '49 is nice, but for me it can't top the styling of the '48.
