Mustang-Themed Pinball Machines Head to Chicago
A trio of Ford Mustang-themed pinball machines will make their debut at the 2014 Chicago Auto Show.
Developed and manufactured by Stern Pinball, the machines will feature the 2015 Ford Mustang, celebrating 50 years of the muscle car’s history. Video displays on the backboard of the pinball machines will feature the popular muscle car along with real Mustang sounds. Gear shifts can be heard when hitting specific targets with subsequent hits activating up- and down-shifts. A total of six games will be set up at the 2014 Chicago Auto Show and top-ranked international pinball celebrity Zach Sharpe will be setting the scores to beat.

The original model will also be present, alongside a Limited Edition pinball machine that is signed by the game’s designer and features the 1965 and 2015 Mustang models. Both the Premium and Limited Edition machines sport genuine chrome Mustang badges on the speaker grilles.
