Pontiac At the All GM Show

 









In 1926 General Motors created the Pontiac division as a companion to their Oakland mid range cars. Manufactured in Pontiac, MI which was named for a famed Odawa Indian chief, began quickly outselling its "big brother" line. By 1931 GM dropped Oakland and funneled those resources to Pontiac. Pontiac slotted above Chevrolet and below Oldsmobile in the GM line up. The brand was eliminated by GM in 2010 as a cost saving measure. Still, plenty are around and quite a few showed up at the 3rd 20th Century All GM Car Show. Among them was a rare Grand Prix 2+2 , a Trans Am, a Bonneville, three different Firebird models, a GTO, and a Grand Prix GT.

      I agree with you about the cars. And that was very slick how you managed to sneak in a bit of an ad. Normally I delete them but I'll let yours stand for now.

    They allow non GM brands that are GM powered into the show as well.
