You get to buy five Forward Looks and you are only allowed to choose one from each brand and each year. What five do you choose from the 55-61 line up? 

Me: 

1957 Desoto Adventurer hardtop

1958 Dodge Regal Lancer Super D500

1959 Imperial Lebaron 2D Hardtop with Silvercrest (stainless steel) roof

1960 Plymouth Fury 2D Hardtop SonoRamic Commando

1961 Chrysler 300G

Hmmm ......

56 is the only year of Imperial I'd want. That makes my Dodge choice hard,
because 56 is my favorite FL Dodge.

58 is the only Plymouth I would want, but where I'd want my DeSoto as well .....

A 61 NY'er ragtop, finished like Jeff Carter's would be my choice for Chrysler,
since 58 is already jammed with one too many choices ... Maybe make that one
my choice for 57 ?

You aren't making this very easy !


How about coming at it this way ....

1955 None

1956 CRL, Fireflite, or Imperial

1957 NY'er or Fireflite

1958 Plymouth, Dodge, Fireflite, NY'er

1959 NONE

1960 Polara/Matador, Fireflite

1961 Plymouth, Dart, DeSoto, NY'er.

Most I would insist be 2 doors or wagons.

Only 1 from each year, and one from each make. So you are forced to skip 2 years and include 1 of each make, whether you like them or not. I skipped 1955, as most do, and 1959 to make Doc happy. Just kidding.

1956 Plymouth Belvedere
1957 Chrysler New Yorker
1958 DeSoto Fireflite
1960 Imperial
1961 Dodge Phoenix

1957 Plymouth Convert
1957 Plymouth 2 dr wagon
1960 Plymouth 4dr hardtop
1960 Plymouth Wagon
1957 Sweptside truck.

I probably would do it differently if I was starting from scratch today, but the 5 that I already own are in my signature below.

This has been keeping me awake for days!
I'm going backwards.

300G. Black with red interior.
60 Imperial 2dr ht crown with everything. Red with white interior.
59 D500. Maybe a convert, triple black.
58 Adventurer. White with tan interior.
57 Fury.

Steve.

Edit, I will need a 56 model too.

Either a 300B or an Imperial coupe will be fine.
