Here is one of a few Ideas i had.
http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f126/250sx/6-1.jpg

basically its a 8.5"x6 3/4" octagone i have to work with. tomorrow i'll cut out the octagoine but I dont know what to put in the center. I wanted to do something like the word Ford and have everything cut out except the words ford so they would be offset more, but i dunno. Here are a few other ideas, where it is bluish is where it will NOT be cut.


And BTW is a 1986 F-250 XT with a 6.9l IDI diesel runnin on Waste Veggie oil :cool: if that helps ya out

How do you like your veggie conversion kit?


I like the nice simple Ford, but the Veggie design would be pretty cool.

It is a nice simple ford :cool:. I dont have any $1000+ conversion kit on her, just strain the veggie, dump it in and go. No conversion no nothin, treat it like its diesel fuel

Seriously? Ive seen kits that start on diesel fuel, then switch to oil. Thats pretty crazy if you just dump it in, good for you! :beer


Whats your milage like?

Thats my secret weapon, its a dual tank truck. My dad's mercedes we just dump and go but we start and stop on diesel with the truck to see if there is much of a difference in starting, and there doesnt appear to be much unless it gets real cold.

Runnin veggie you do loose some horses and MPGs but I'm still getting 14mpg and thats with a truck that gets 16 stock, I hate the 4 speed

ok I got the piece cut out so maybe tomorow I'll have the lettering and such done. The issue I'm having now is the 1/8" bit is too big to do the letters :lol:, if it cuts them out it'll be overlappin. So we will see what I have to work with. BTW the shiney side is my practice side for polishing and the duller side is the one which will be showing. I tried the polisher today but I think I'm gonna use Mother's and a good rag instead
