Once upon a time in Oakland County...

Pontiac ruled. And this 1964 Grand Prix is one of the best-looking and most impressive Pontiacs ever. Yes, it's a big boat. Front and rear overhangs are excessive, and the wheels are tucked a bit too far into the body, but it is an absolutely magnificent expression of American car design back when design teams - under Bill Mitchell in this case - created beauty, not space efficiency or ergonomics, and engineers dealt mainly with power and torque, not fuel economy or pollution. In many senses we are well rid of such excess, but in absolute terms the loss of such cars, and the loss of Pontiac itself, is a national tragedy.
