Show Pontiac Offers Fine New Models Spurred on by the remarkable success of its new and original Torpedo models in 1940 and with its factory and dealer organization geared up to surpass its most successful suc-cessful year, Pontiae Motor Division Divi-sion this week is announcing an entire Torpedo fleet for 1941. The Service garage, Bob Tomsik, manager, is local agent for Pontiae Pon-tiae cars and a large display ad illustrating the vaniousa 1941 models appears on another page of this issue of The News. There will be three complete lines of cars styled in the Torpedo manner. . . longer in wheelbase. . . more graceful. . . roomier. . . more powerful. . . a low-priced DeLuxie Torpedo of 119 inch wheelbase, a daring new streamliner Torpedo of 122-in. wheelbase and an ultra-smart ultra-smart custom Torpedo of the same ' wheelbase. They will replace the shorter wheelbased Special Six, DeLuxe Six, DeLuxe Eight and Torpedo Eight of 1940. Unusual skill and finesse has been shown by Pontiae engineers ' in providing all 1941 models with ' either a six cylinder or an eight cylinder engine. Thus with many combinations of colors, bodies, equipment, chassis chas-sis and engines available in the new Torpedo fleet, motorists will have a wide range from which to choose in selecting a new Pontiae. And at the low prices announced, a high level of values is certain to continue as it has in recent years. Although radiators, hoods, fenders, fen-ders, other sheet metal parts and Fisher bodies have been re-styled to further glorify the Torpedo design, de-sign, Pontiae retains its well known Silver Streak as a basic style theme for the seventh consecutive con-secutive year. iBrilliant chromium adds many highlights from radiator to rear : bumper. Wide, massive, horizontal horizon-tal chrome radiator grilles extending extend-ing from headlamp to headlamp, join with fenders, bumpers and hood to give an impression of powerful beauty. Heavy duty bumpers are built into the body. Bumper guards are spaced to form a natural built-in location for the front license plate. Ingenious new parking lamps, which are scarcely visible I in the daytime, fit into horizontal I spaces between the broad radiator I grilles beside the headlamps. A side view of the Torpedo-styled Torpedo-styled bodies presents improved hood and trunk- lines, as well as new chromium belt mouldings, and a new treatment of fender skirts and running boards, blending into cowl and trunk. Rear fenders are protected from flying stones by rubber pads. |
