1965 Pontiac Grand Prix
--OR--
LOTS of great designs from GM that year! The Grand Prix is probably the best one. Thanks for posting, Rick!

Rj - I stand corrected.
DeletePontiac enjoyed great success with Jack Humbert and Bill Mitchell and their team of engineers and stylists.
DeleteThe stacked headlamps and coke bottle shape of Pontiacs made the 1965 models top sellers for GM, as they were #3 in sales behind Chevrolet and Ford !
Pontiac went to stacked headlamps in 1963, other GM models and other carmakers followed suit. Pontiac was the first to utilize parallel windshield wipers in 1965, and the first to develop hidden wipers and front windows without vent windows in 1967. More innovative and styling features that ended up on all other GM cars, and cars of other makers.

Rj - You know so much!
DeleteMon grand-père possédait une Pontiac Strato-Chief quatre portes de 1965 avec en moteur V8 de 327 pouces cubes.
ReplyDeleteLa voiture était son cadeau de départ à la retraite.
Au Canada, on vendait des Pontiacs fabriquées aux États-Unis et des Pontiacs fabriquées au Canada.
Il existait une différence notable :
les Pontiacs canadiennes étaient construites sur des châssis Chevrolet !
Équipées de moteurs de Chevrolet et de transmissions Powerglide, et d’intérieurs modifiés. De plus, elles avaient un empattement et une longueur plus courts.
Les modèles Pontiacs vendus au Canada s’appelaient Strato-Chief, Laurentian et Parisienne.

Monsieur Dupuis - Very interesting.
ReplyDeleteMy dad was a Pontiac man.
ReplyDeleteHe had a 1966 Executive 4 door hardtop with every option. Just like a ’65 with a different grill.
