On this day in 2009, the (then) struggling American auto
giant General Motors said it planned to discontinue production of its more than
80-year-old Pontiac brand. Pontiac ’s origins
dated back to the Oakland Motor Car, which was founded in 1907 in Pontiac , Michigan
Pontiac (and many others) may have gone the way of the dodo
but as long as there are collectors and highways on which to drive them I
suspect there will always be classic cars like the Pontiac GTO, the Olds
Cutlass 442, the Plymouth Road Runner, the Chevelle Malibu SS or the Firebird
Trans Am. Roll on, you RUSTY OLD AMERICAN DREAM!
