Pontiac: Car 

Pontiac began in Pontiac, Michigan in 1893 as the Pontiac Buggy Company. 

The founder Edward Murphy knew which way the winds were blowing: in 1907, he began producing automobiles under the name Oakland Motor Car Company. 

After General Motors bought a stake in the company, Pontiac became a GM brand, d

In 1935, Pontiac started adding chrome trim straight down the center of its hoods and trunks. The distinctive embellishment became known as the "Silver Streak" and lasted as a trademark Pontiac look for 20 years.
