Keith Kibbons doesn't just make lemonade from lemons. He can turn a potential disaster into a work of art.
The 35-year-old mechanical genius from Bradley has been expressing himself in various forms of transportation since 1999. And two months ago, he moved his artist workshop, Kustom Kreations by Kibbons, to its new home at 980 N. Washington St. in Kankakee.
Inside the garage, the artist's work includes a customers' 1970 Camaro, sure to be a future car showstopper. On the other end, there's a four-door pickup truck that Kibbons describes as "jacked to the moon." It's now getting some special paint features.
But out in front of the shop sits the one-of-a-kind motorcycle that tells the story of Kibbons' escape from serious injury.
"It was a 2004 Harley-Davidson that I made into my own personal bike," he explained. "I like to take my [7-year-old] son Neiko on rides with me.
