I was going through my lists of models and noticed I never bought this one. Not sure why I missed it the first time around, but now I’m having no luck finding one. Any suggestions?

Oh no!  You just missed one on eBay.  Sold 12/5 for a very reasonable price.

Yes, that's a beautiful model. I bought mine a couple of years ago from a UK based seller. I "needed" it to complete a trio including its Buick and Oldsmobile GM counterparts:

I have those wagons and a '41 Pontiac two door and four door fastbacks but what I really want someone to offer is the one in the top of this photo.

The closest I have seen is a Victory Models of a 1940 Buick 50 Series Sedan I had many years ago. Maybe you could find a 3D printing for the Pontiac.

Well, long ago Jerry Rettig did a resin casting of a 1941 Buick 5 window sedan but no one has done a Pontiac or Oldsmobile to my knowledge.

I bought mine when Brooklin was issuing the Pontiac Club models. I too wish they had done the notch back sedan. As Richard mentioned, the only model with that body style I know of is the Buick by Victory.

And here are two more interesting 1941 cars that could be modeled.  Both 1941 Oldsmobiles.  A 5 window sedan and a very rare and last year for a convertible sedan spotted at a car show a few decades ago.

@john-quilter 1941 was a very good year for every division of GM.
