Seeing the picture of Mac next to the original Pontiac (in my first post) got me to thinkin':

Pontiac started in 1926; Mac started at Pontiac in 1941, so the division was only 15 years old when Mac started there....

...at the time of his retirement he had been there 45 of Pontiac's 60 years, or fully three quarters of it's entire existance.
