Year after year, Pontiac offers all that’s good and all that’s new — plus outstanding economy of operation and upkeep. It really leaves nothing essential to be desired —in performance, in comfort or in handling ease. And, always, it is one of the most beautiful cars to be seen on the streets and highways. The 1947 Pontiac Silver Streak is an example of what we mean. People who get it need envy no one — and the same will be true of those who get their Pontiacs in 1948, 1949 or 1950. Year after year, Pontiac is a fine cate —in every respect. When you need, a Jack buy PYRAMID!Snell Bros. & The stack of orders piled tip for the new Pontiac are gratifying testimonials to the quality and beauty of this finest of the famous Silver Streaks, Unfortunately, so many orders also mean that many who choose Pontiac must wait. So if your car-wise head and heart say 'Pont'ac' . , , your present car will give you hotter, safer service while you wait if you have it serviced by your Pontiac dealer.
