I/we personally like the new grill for 56, the flatter hood and the taillights are a work of art, in our opinion. The full length split body side moldings, where the top back half color runs through the front color has a nice eye appealing flow, gives it a look it's moving while it's standing still.  |
I just like the tailfins of a 57 and the way a 55 looks with the rear fenders cut out for bigger meat and the front end in the air minus the bumper.
