✅ SOLVED Pontiac Vehicle Grille Emblem Year/Model ?

[RobNC]

Took the Legend out again today. The pickings were slim on coinage, but I got a really strong signal and dug down to find a Pontiac Emblem. I'm not 100% sure which year and model this could have came from. Does anyone know?
I've also attached a screenshot from a 1940 Pontiac Model 6. It so far is the only similar emblem I have found online. What do you think?

That's pretty cool, because the auto manufacturers were building war stuff like tanks and ships. I believe 1940 was the last year they made cars up to a certain point.

I think you have answered your own question.
1940 Pontiac.
As to which model, the name plate was the same on all models that year.

Pontiac 1940

Thanks to everyone who responded. It's good to have things verified. Would love to have seen that whole vehicle when it was new. I bet it was something.
