Or modify it to burn wood gas(produce gas), as was a standard car mod in Denmark during WWII, from the numbers I've seen, 1000kg of wood is equivalent to about 350l of gas.
Compare the price of 1 ton of wood chips (I've seen numbers around $50-$100/t delivered) compared to the $400 the equivalent gasoline costs and see how much you save and how fast the mod is repaid.
