thejunkman Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 New to modeling but not new to difficult, tedious, and patience testing projects. I already have a build thread of a model that will eventually end up as a gift for my Dad, you can check it out here http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=101284 But I thought I would share a few projects that are more familiar to me. First off I run my own website where I make predominantly motorcycle restoration and how to videos as well as agricultural videos that are near and dear to me growing up as a farm kid. These are my "Adventures" because life itself is an adventure. www.thejunkmanadv.com "Barn Fresh" Restoration I filmed a whole 13 episode series about restoring these bikes. I do all the paint work myself as well. Before: After: This is a performance based project. I did a lot of internal modifications and machining taking the stock engine from 33 hp to abour 45 hp in this bike using "period correct" parts including the suspension parts.
