Project SS Update

I've almost got all the parts I need for my SS project. I've had a hard time with some online retailers being out of stock or backordering parts after I order them. Frustrating! I'm still waiting for a couple parts but everything else has been received. After stimulating the economy at Harris Cyclery, I got a box of goodies promptly sent to me. These guys are fast at shipping your order! I proceeded to build my wheels. This was an educational experience to put it lightly. After several screw ups I got both wheels laced. I'll be taking them to my LBS to get trued and dished. I had to get few other specialty parts from other places online.

The frame is my big hold up at this point though. I need to get it stripped and painted. The paint scheme I'm working on should be pretty kick ass.
