Default metalworker from virginia

My name is Brad Wilmarth. I have been restoring early american(1900-1930) motorcycles since 1994. I started working in a Porsche bodyshop outside Phila. in 1977, when I was 16. One of my co-workers showed me how to repair dents without filler. I already knew how to weld,prime,paint. I ran a bodyshop with a partner for 3 years,but I wasn't happy doing that. I moved to D.C. and worked for several auto dealers-Ford,BMW,and eventually Mercedes/Ferrari. Went to Mercedes school in N.Jersey.I have restored several cars,lots of bikes. I do almost all of my projects myself :motors,machining,painting,plating prep,pinstriping,upholstery. Now I want to build a car-I must be nuts!

If you google my name you will find some of my work.
