Pontiac Deluxe 1939


The 1939 Pontiac Deluxe Eight models used the same body as the Deluxe “120” six models. The Indian head hood ornaments on eight-cylinder cars had a fin-like feather design, compared to the straight-back feather design used on six-cylinder models. A “Pontiac Eight” emblem was affixed to the cars' rear decks. There was also a fancier trim plate around the circular badge on the front bumper. 


 A driver is changing the tire of Pontiac Deluxe 1939 belong to ALRI (Indonesian Navy) official, Malioboro (Jogjakarta), 1948. A bit worse for wear it seems and I would not want to go far on that tyre!
