Why does everyone run Ford Coupes and Chevy Sedans?

Why does everyone run these? And never the other? I hardly never see Chevy Coupes and Ford Sedans.

I have a Ford sedan.
Not as many options out there as there used to be. Chassis-wise, they are the same.

Also, a lot of people run the Ford body with the '37 Chevy nose to aide in engine cooling.

The Ford coupes with the Chevy nose are extremely popular at the track I race at, as are at most tracks from what I've seen.  The Chevy coupe is very similar, it's just missing the b pillar basically; my friend has one.  One other guy and I have Chevy sedans, and there used to be a 34 Ford and a 37 Ford sedan at my track but both are up for sale now.

Another issue is that USLCI has done away with some of the body styles. So new parts are not available.
