I think my all time favorite Plymouth (other than a Volare wagon of course) would have to be the '57 Belvedere hardtop - two or four door, doesn't matter. Just the ultimate Exner car. The Fury was great, but the two-toned Belvedere's, with their little more restrained trim than the Fury, seem just perfect. Always wanted one. Also really like the "fuselage" Mopars, in particular the '70 Chryslers, and also the '75 - '78 Chrysler Newports. The '65 - '66 Sport Furies were beautiful too.

I have favorites from almost every era of Mopar.
Not so much the 30's but 40's on up.
Lately I've had a thing for early 50's business coupes and I've always had a thing for the Exner cars and all the fuselage cars.

I always thought those Valiant's were really good looking cars. Especially in '62 when the replaced the cats eye taillights with round ones. My dad has a '62 Valiant V200 and even in it's VERY distressed state (major rust), still looks good.

Compare any of these with modern cars; there's no soul anymore.

I've written countless paragraphs about just that. That's why my newest car is a 1987. I can't even drive the new crap.
I've driven the wife's Scamry a few times and I'll pass.
I love my old school rides.
