For looks: '32 Ford Roadster '34 Ford 5-W Coupe '36 Ford 3-W Coupe '40 Ford Standard Coupe ( it's a grill thing...) '49 Merc 2-D Shit, need another 5 to cover '55 Chevy, 59 El Camino, '66 El Camino, '66 Chevelle, '67 Camaro . . . hang on, what about Vettes? What about '65 Belvederes? What about the rest? No, gonna give up there. Then again, for design, the Model T must be just about perfect - does exactly what it was supposed to do, and without it, would we all be driving cars of any sort?

Good point Funny thing is we don't even look alike since we are fraternal and not identical. About the only thing we have in common is that we love cars, but he likes the modern sports cars and muscle cars with modern technology and i like Hot rods and customs.

I'd agree that most of the cars on this list would actually make a great top 10, but as for a top 5 I base mine not only on my personal taste but popularity as well. 1. 1932 Ford 2. 1957 Chevy (I prefer '56s, but they are the least popular of the Tri-5s) 3. 1969 Camaro 4. 1940 Ford 5. 1949 Mercury WOW Deuce Roadster- I typed this up abot 11am today- but it wouldn't let me post it! Our lists are nearly identical!!!
If we're talking stock, and based on looks alone: 63 vette 65/66 mustang fastback/shelby gt350 36 ford 3-w 32 roadster bubbletop impala lincoln zephyr is almost in there too For complete design (looks, mechanicals): 06/07 vette 69 ZL-1 camaro 63 FI split-window vette 87 buick GN (hey, it was the 80's and shit else was going on, give them some credit) 55 chevy (start of the sbc, thats worth something) A shelby cobra isn't really an "american" design, but if it was it would be in there.
1962 belair bubbletop (tied-best.design.ever) 1961 bonneville hardtop (tied-best.design.ever) 1961 cadillac coupe deville (luxo version of best.design.ever) 1968 malibu (the cheap one, not the ss-plain aluminum grill, minimalist tailights) gt-40 (boy racer fantasy car of the sixties) what can i say,i love bubbletops? i dislike convertibles, 'cause they're always a design compromise, either up or down...
1955 Chevy 210 1967 Olds 442 with w-30 option 1933 Ford coupe (damn you Larry. ) 1956 Mercury Monterey-sexy. 30-31 Ford Coupe that said, as far as Chassis are concerned... 64-72 general motors a-body- the most bulletproof design ever. 1932 ford frame- Beauty and function. 70's model Jeep- if it werent for shocks, almost a full 12 inches suspension travel second generation G.M. f-Body. shame about the back half of the cars, but the clip is a kiler. Tri 5 Chevrolet.- simple, and brutal. you will notice there is no mention of Mustang 2. at all.
okay.. 1. budlight 2. busch light 3. mill.... o...cars......okey 70 amx 32 [i guess ] 56 ford pu 62 impala yugo!!!![okay, that ones a fibber] im too drunk to think of a fifth... like others have said ,,,,,by morn most will be off the list.... they call it OCD HOTRODDER i beleive!!!
I find this kind of poll irresistable, even though (1) I don't think anybody will take time to read my list and (2) I don't think anybody gives a shit what I think are the best cars. I can't get the list to hold still long enough to make up my mind, so I'll just put down the first 5 that came to mind: 50 Ford Convert (top up) 61 Pontiac Bubbletop Cord 812 Cabriolet (top down) 40 Ford Deluxe Coupe 34 Ford 3-window Coupe
1. 29-36 Duesenberg Model J/SJ 2. 36-37 Cord 810/812 3. Shelby AC Cobra 4. 31-34 Stutz DV 32 5. 57 Chevy Bel-Air Keeping it to 5 is really tough. It is hard to leave off other cars. 35/36 Auburn Speedster, 66 Olds Torando, 67 Eldo, Model T, 53 Eldo, 63 Corvette, ...
