You've been busy!
When I saw the parts for blasting I was trying to figure out how you were gonna use the valve covers and oil pan on your build :)

That wheel is insane!!!! I am very jealous! I like the grifter tire the best. Big Apples are awesome tires, but one thing I don't like is the reflective stripe.

Hey G, I'm sure you have been busy this past week, just checking in to see the progress report on this Fink 49.

I'm old so forgive me, but you know there is a song called Funk 49 right? I'm pretty sure you prob based your name somewhat on that, along with your tire sizes....anyway, thought I would post the tune here.

Maybe it will Get you To Buildin' as our friend @Jake Sensi would say!

Not much progress . The bike is at my buddy's who is doing the powder coating. Hopefully he's doing it , I'm on his time now so who knows if this bike will be done on time or not . I still don't have all the parts I need either. So I better dig deep in the bike building fund .
I did manage to get the 3 speed greased and back together .

Time to send the 'knuckle busters' over to the buddy's doing the powder coating? :comando:

Any more parts work on The Fink while you've been waiting? Anxious to see this bike again!:nod:

A few small steps forward as the clock continues to tick.
Got the 24" rear wheel back from powder now just need to lace & true Which is not my specialty so may have my local bike shop do it bob bike shop has been in business since 76 so for the $23.00 it's worth it to me .
The next shot is the 24" & the 29" mag & the new grifter tire .

He's Back, But Don't Call It a Comeback!!!

 
Careful what you wish for KF, you're building a contender. He may knock you out.

I'd be cool with that! I want to see this bad boy rolling!

I drilled out the big dice to fit it matches the seat pretty well .
