Pontiac's
Greatest Decade 1959-1969: The Wide Track Era
- Pontiac's Greatest Decade, 1959-1969: The Wide
Track Era covers a specific timeline in Pontiac's history. A decade
when it jumped from middle of the sales pack to hold the coveted
number three position behind Chevrolet and Ford. Pontiac never
gave it up from 1961 until 1969. The incredible leadership of
Bunkie Knudsen, Bob Estes, and John DeLorean helped propel Pontiac
into this esteemed position. Starting with the Wide Track 1959
Catalina, in rapid succession came the 1961 Tempest, the 1962
Grand Prix, the 1964 GTO (which launched the muscle car era),
the 1967 Firebird, and the 1969 Grand Prix. Pontiac's Greatest
Decade, The Wide Track Era, captures the energy and the dynamic
force of personality that ignited the spirit of Pontiac Motor
Division and all of its employees, from designers and engineers
to assembly line workers and dealers. No other book on Pontiac's
history has captured the essence of the Wide Track era. Along
with never-before-seen photographs, there are evaluations
of the products and significant milestones in the company's history
from 1959 to 1969. Production and pricing information are also
included.
