Lawrenceburg Played Host to a Number of Pontiac Models

 In the grand General Motors scheme of having a brand to fit every financial niche, Pontiac was introduced in 1933 to sit just above Chevrolet and below Oldsmobile. Initially it was a "companion" car to GM's Oakland brand but quickly outpaced it's older sibling and, in 1931, just a few years after it was introduced, Pontiac's popularity led GM to close the Oakland division. Sadly, due to restructuring at GM, the Pontiac division was closed in 2010. But it left behind a number of fantastic automobiles and a number of them were on hand for the Cruisin' To A Cure For ALS show in Lawrenceburg. Among the cars on display was a Tempest, a couple of Trans Ams, a Firebird, and a number of GTO models from different years and generations.
