The chain ring has seen better days but I tried to save as much as I could on this build.

Blasted everything and had to chop some of this fender of to get rid of the rust. I can weld patched on that thin of metal. Not yet anyway haha.

I am heading out to pick up the frame from powder coating since my oven is too small other wise I would have done it my self.
