Stock Car

The 1970 Gottlieb Stock Car is a vintage pinball machine that embodies the spirit of speed and competition. Designed by Ed Krynski with artwork by Art Stenholm, this single-player, electro-mechanical Add-A-Ball machine channels an auto-racing theme through its playfield design. It followed Gottlieb's 1969 'Road Race', which serves as its replay counterpart.

Key gameplay features include two flippers, three pop bumpers, and a rotating arrow bumper -- a distinctive design element that adds an extra layer of challenge to the game. Like other EM machines of its era, Stock Car relies on electromagnetic coils and relays to score points and control gameplay.

The artwork reflects the thrill of stock car racing, with bold lines and bright colors typical of Gottlieb's early-1970s output. With 350 confirmed units produced, Stock Car is a relatively scarce example of Gottlieb's racing-themed machines from this period.
