1 Pontiac trims side overhang
to give yOu a new Wide-Track...greater stability
Notice that the sleek lines of the body
are closer than ever to track width.
Wo ve trimmed side overhanp. Every
inch and ounce of this ’61 Pontiac
travels with steadier footing.
The change is also noticeable Inside.
We've increased seat height and allowed
more headroom, legroom and footroom.
Clearance between steering wheel and
seat Is 12 per cent more than before.
Doors are wider, swing open farther.
More balanced in motion. More com-
fortable inside. That'* the Wide-Track
way to travel. And there's only one
place to try it... In a ’61 Pontiac I Take
a deciding drive soon.
