THE PONTIAC "CHIEF OF THE SIXES" WAS A HIT AND IT OUTSOLD OAKLAND EVERY YEAR. SALES OF OAKLANDS CONTINUED TO FALTER AND IT WAS DISCONTINUED AFTER 1931. PONTIAC MADE STEADY IMPROVEMENTS TO THE ORIGINAL DESIGN THROUGH 1930, WHEN THE PONTIAC 6-30-8 WAS BUILT. FOUR-WHEEL MECHANICAL BRAKES WERE ADOPTED IN 1928.
