So, as I drive around, I am always looking into open garages to see if there happens to be any pinball games inside. Over the years, I have seen a number of games and fortunately, I could tell what they were and usually had no interest.

Well, today, I look into a garage that is well stacked with boxes (but still barely room for a car) and at the back of the garage complete with more boxes on top, under and all around I see a pinball just barely peaking out. But, unfortunately, with side art I cannot identify.

I couldn't tell if it was a singe player or not. I don't think it was a wedge head. It looked a lot like typical 60's Williams geometric cabinet art. It was a white cabinet with SS side rails. The art as best as I can describe was that of the Pontiac Automobile Emblem in Blue and Red. Nothing more on the head and possibly, the same triangular shape laid out horizontally on the side cabinet.

I looked at most of the WMS games from 61 to the SS era on IPDB and couldn't see a match.

Ring any bells? I would like to know what the game is before I even bother enquiring if they want to sell it.

No, not Spin-a-Card, Black Gold, or Central Park. The art looked almost exactly like this except it was blue and red and no star in the center.Pontiac.png

I will snap a shot the next time I drive by and the garage is open (its along the way to the kids school).

Thanks for the suggestions so far. It almost makes me wonder if someone that likes Pontiacs, did a custom paint job.

There was also a guy that used to work at a distributorship that would refurbish old EMs. Apparently, he had one set of stencils and used the same exact artwork on every game he repainted. I assume he used different color schemes but I could be wrong. Unfortunately, I don't know what the "stock art" was. I wonder if this is one of them?

No, not that either. The art doesn't resemble the Pontiac emblem, it is exactly like it. No breaks in the art, just the two triangle shapes drawn within each other in blue and red in the center of the head. I will just have to try to snap a photo if I get a chance. I was hoping it would just remind someone here of a game they had or used to have.

That's the one! Good call. I knew someone had to have seen the art before. Thanks MikeO.

Fortunately, NOT a game on my want list. Just couldn't get into it each year at PPE. Checking with a local friend to see if he has any interest in it. He likes the "hunt"......
