Default Corvette Pinball Machine for the Man Cave. Check it out!

This is my new (new to me) Corvette Pinball machine by Ballys, circa 1994. Just happens to be the same year of my Vette. This is the coolest pinball machine I have played.
It has a drag strip where you race another Vette. It has an LT5, ZR1 motor that you shoot you ball into. It has about a dozen classic collectable cars that you can acquire thru the game and you can build up your suspension, brakes, big block, cams or a few others. It also has a pretty girl in another Vette that wants to race you and she says, "catch me if you can."
I love it!

Way coool! I love it! And best of all, it is accurate! The guys who designed and built this game didn't skimp on the details. The LT5 engine valve cover looks accurate as heck. The car depictions are dead on! Thanks for sharing the pics.

I am a pinball guy from wayy back in the day. I did not, however, know about the newer machines and that Bally made a 1994 Corvette pinball machine. I am glad you all enjoy it. The dragstrip on the right actually works and the cars actuall go down the strip. I have to hit certain targets to make my car win. There are skid pad tests, lateral g's, and all that as you go thru the game. I will have to get the manual for this machine to really figure out how deep it goes and how to go thru the game.

As an old pinball wizard you probably know that a lot of times the games vendors stuff the maintenance manual, paperwork, etc back inside the table area or up in the fold down head. You didn't find anything interesting in there?



Looks like a LOT of fun!

Kevin, it is an awesome and super fun game to play. Notice I have the 3rd high score already.
Cal, you can find them on e-bay and also google corvette pinball.
Sky, I did not get any manuals with the machines and they are not in any obvious places. However, I went on the internet and downloaded the manuals from a pinball registry site for free.
Frizz, I knew you would like this. I hope I didn't create a run on these pinballs. I may know where to get another or two but you will have to handle the deal and shipping.
I am having a hard tims leaving the mancave.....
