This vehicle is a 1926 Pontiac Landau Coupe. When new, it carried a price tag of $895, making it the mid-priced vehicle in Pontiac's line-up. For 1926, Pontiac's first year in business, they offered one series consisting of 5 bodystyles. The base priced bodystyles were the 2-Door coach with seating for either 2 or 5 people, both cost $825. Next was the four-door Landau Sedan and 2-door Coupe, both costing $895. The top-of-the line Pontiac was the 4-door Deluxe Landau Sedan which had seating for five and a price of $975.

All of the Series 6-27 vehicles rested on a wheelbase of 110-inches and had a length of 151.25-inches. All were powered by an L-head, cast-iron block, six-cylinder engine that displaced 186.5 cubic-inches and produced 40 horsepower.

When the 1926 model year began, Pontiac had only two models in the 6-27 series. After August of 1926, the model range had been expanded to include the five bodystyles listed above.

The bodies were designed by Fisher and featured a honeycomb radiator with Indian head mascot. All were given cowl lamps as standard equipment. The bodystyles introduced part-way through the year had mild changes. One of the bigger changes was the addition of body colors; the early 1926 models were offered in only a few colors. The coup was finished in light SageGreen with Faerie Red striping. The Coach bodystyles were painted in Arizona gray.
