Not very exciting, to say the least. It was created to gain market share in the low end of the medium price field. It did just that; it never failed to outsell its nearest competitor, Mercury. It's easy to trace Pontiac history prior to 1955.................it did not have one. Pontiac got through 1954 as a senior Chevrolet with its straight sixes and in-line eights. Turn the page and you will find one of the most astounding transformations in automobile history. No one seemed to notice Pontiac potential until Semon Knudsen assumed his post as general manager of PMD. At this time Pontiac was known to be a real good car, solid but deadly dull. They were cars that elderly people bought. Knudsen changed all that with his vision and his dream. Early on he stated, "You can sell a young man's car to old people but you cannot sell an old man's car to young people." He believed in order for Pontiac to grow it had to appeal to enthusiasts as well as older people who were interested in transportation only. The horse power race was on and he determined to make PONTIAC THE YOUNGEST MOTOR CAR IN THE INDUSTORY. His first action was to rid the car of its dual hood stripes. The Silver Streak was a legend, but it had to go. He thought they looked like suspenders. They were out of style and boring. Pontiac was going to be daring and forever young.-----------------Overnight, Pontiac was on the move, a runaway train. By 1959, Pontiac was unstoppable and unbeatable on the stock car circuit.
