In presenting the new Ponti-
ac*, Harry J. Klingler, general
manager of Pontiac Motor Div-
ision and vice president of (ien-
eral Motors Corporation, said:
“We believe our 1950 line lo
be the best looking, finest per-
forming Pontlacs ever produced.
They embrace Ibgical and well
thought out advances. The 1949
models brought Pontiac's popu-
larity to a new peak. Now wr
have gone on from there."
Pontiac again gives its cus-
tomers an extremely wide choice.
Chieftain and Streamliner llnc-i
ore continued with standard and
deluxe styling, six or eight cyl-
inder engines and Hydra-Matic
or Synchro-Mesh transmissions.
Cubic displacement of the pop-
ular eight cylinder engine has
teen Increased to produce 1<W
horsepower. Horse|Kiwer of the
six cylinder engine remains at
90. Compression ratios for noth
engines air 6.5—allowing maxi-
mum performance with opera-
tional savings on non-premium
gasolines. .•
From buhiper to bumper. In-
side and out, calculated design
touches have enriched and high-
lighted Pontiac's traditionally
rich appearance.
Rich Interior Styling
Art and engineering meet in
the interior of the 1950 Deluxe
Pontlacs with aesthetically satis-
fying result. Door panels are n
blending of to shades of gray
with upper broadcloth softly
merging with harder finished fab-
ric of the lower panels. These
lower panels are scratch resist-
ant and easily cleaned.
Pontiac's Instrument panel,
which has won the praise of de
sign experts for its functional
elegance, remains essentially un-
changed. There is a new horn
button with distinctive coln-llke
design, and detail highlights add
sparkle to the front compart-
ment.
Chieftain Series

Deluxe) offers the following
body types; four door sedan,

vertible coupe business coupe. A
