Re: 71 K20 Idaho Edition

While working on getting fenders ready for color over the weekend it reminded me that I wanted to do a custom badge for the fenders on the second lower set of existing badge holes. The top holes will be for the "Custom/20" badges that go with the truck. The bottom holes I believe were for the "8/350" emblem.

My intentions were to design a badge that looks like the it could be period correct and have a twist on the build. Place it on the fenders in place of the "8/350" and when I decide to pass the truck on to a new owner it can be swapped out if they want.

This is the first draft of the emblem done in illustrator. Once I get it where I am happy with I can open the vector file in my CNC software and create cutting files and do a test cut from my CNC machine.

Here is a picture of the first draft.
