I believe it's a Monark. I occasionally build it up a little differently.
When I purchased it at the first Midwest Bicycle Swap.
When I first put it together
Another time I built it up to take to the Tour De Fat
It's pretty rough. On a whim the other night I brought it down from that parts portal known as the attic. I took the angle grinder and a flap disc to it then primered it. 50 degrees in the garage. Not ideal for painting.
Next night I painted it (again around 50 degrees) and started building it back up. The paint is a Rustoleum textured paint. Has a faux rusty/patina'd look to it I think.
More on it later... maybe.
