Pontiac Motor Division marks fifty years of car making
Pontiac celebrates its fiftieth year of passenger car production tracing back to the Oakland Motor Car Company founded on August 28, 1907. The Oakland plant evolved into Pontiac with a new 246 acre facility building cars swiftly, and by 1931 Pontiac outpaced Oakland leading to the Oakland name being retired. Through postwar recovery, Pontiac expanded to multiplant production with millions of cars produced and payrolls rising from 1921 into the modern era.
