67; 68 not bad but didn’t care for those hidden headlights on the Ford.

If you had asked without showing the pictures, I would have said the '68. But, seeing them together, I like the stacked headlights and roofline of the '67 better. Good comparo!

Very close, but I went 1968.

Retired in Dunedin, Florida.

I like them both a lot. Spend some time as kid in a '68, our neighbor had one in green w/a black top. Looking at them together, I'll go with the '67. I like the front and the taillights a bit better.

67 By the smallest of margins for the reasons JK mentioned.

'67 please. Love Ford Galaxie '60 to'67. I don't keep a list of how I rated them [style/looks] in the past, but today it is: '61, '63, '66, '62, '67, '64, '65, '60.  I lost interest in full-size Fords after '67 and GM was '64 and Chrysler was '65; all the full-size seemed to get bloated/ballooned/got fat in the late '60's. I personally went to mid-size '66 to '71 & pickups + motorcycles after '73. SUV's in retirement

1967 for me as I prefer the headlights showing. Slightly prefer the styling also.

I like the '67 because of the stacked headlights, but like the roofline of the '68 better.  Does that make it a Tie?  Smile

I don't like the roofline of the '68 because I think it's too horizontal and impedes vision when backing up. 

Same issue with the '71 Mustang.

LOL, it doesn't impede vision like EVERY CAR on the road does today.  All the cars today have blind spots everywhere.  Seems like we went backwards, as the 50's and 60's cars overall very blind spot free.

1968 for me.  I prefer the hide-away headlights, the revised taillights, and the edgier roofline.  And I especially like the LTD CS.
