Another Mopar Off My Bucket List - Barracuda Fastback
I've been shying away from the idea of using one large image for the playing surface. Although I think it would look good, there are a ton of graphics pertaining to scoring that should be kept. Without them it's difficult to understand how to gain points. With them whatever background I'd choose would really broken up.
I decided to start by blacking out all of the original graphics from the SWING ALONG theme while leaving the scoring information intact. Next I will have to figure out which images to fit in the spaces to decorate this thing. It's pretty boring without a more detailed background. Oh, I also printed some checkerboard vinyl overlays to install on the 1/2" wide raised walls.
The 'pop cap' bumpers will still be getting the fancy L.E.D. treatment. For now I've printed out some car pics for the tops of them.
There are 6 plastic pieces that I've re-made out of Lexan. The original ones had the SWING ALONG theme on them and were warped. Due to their odd shapes It's hard to fit decent looking graphics on them. I'm not sure whether or not I'll stay with the race helmets on them.
