That's one of the thing I love about GM cars in the 60s. You can pinpoint the year of production based on minor cosmetic changes

Their print ads during the '60's were done exclusively by Art Fitzpatrick and Van Kaufman. They had been the Advertising agency for Buick since 1953 until John Delorean hired them to be Pontiac's exclusive print advertising agency in the '60's. They did incredible work for Pontiac and helped transform and establish the Pontiac brand as High Performance from its' stodgy past image. John Delorean forbid photography to be used in any Pontiac ads, hence the beautiful hand-drawn prints.

Bob Lutz who was heading up GM of Europe scooped-up Fitzpatrick and Van Kaufman in the early '70's to work on the Opel account in Europe.

I guess the GM Corporate "band of doom" that began in the '70's killed off this spirited advertising.

Compared to the Sunbird and the prior Sunfires (as well as all of the Cavaliers), that actually wasn't too bad.

1967:

Pontiac advertising returned largely to photographic images by the late 1960s, and this ad is probably ranked among the top 10 print advertisements in history. It helped to build the legend of the GTO:

Yet "wat?" is perfectly acceptable to that person...

I have a bunch more old Pontiac ads. If I can find 'em I'll post 'em

Not Pontiac, but neat..

Shown is the 1959 Pontiac "Broadsweep", a limited production, eleven-foot-wide convertible that seated 6 across, but was not popular due to its tendency to be involved in head-on collisions with oncoming traffic. Broadsweeps are rarely seen today because of this flaw.

It seems like that flaw would have been apparent, even before production

Fairly quotidian stuff really - my grandmother had one that looked like it belonged on Sanford and Son - but I always loved its lines and details.

Let's have a conversation on values:

My uncle bought the first one to hit the showroom in Pittsburgh. He died in a fiery explosion when he pulled into a Mobil station and knocked down both rows of fuel pumps. At once.

It must be remembered that the automobile industry in those times was still a "freewheeling" kind of business, not regulated by Washington DC, where all of the intelligent people live. In modern times, an eleven foot-wide automobile would be out of the question. Unless, of course it was equipped with eleven foot-wide airbags, and 12 lap-shoulder belts.
