First Project help please!!
Greetings!! So I'm gonna be picking up an 80"s fuji frame and fork soon for only 20 bucks. The guy I'm buying from already sanded off some of the paint, but can't continue I guess. I'm taking it off his hands for MY FIRST PROJECT! I figured I'd build up a single speed to keep things simple. I need suggestions on what parts to buy! I'm not looking to break the bank, but I still want a decent low maintenance single speed bike out of this.
All I have to start this project is the frame and fork. Any help, tips, suggestions and advice would be awesome!

I was also thinking free wheel, not fixed. Any suggestions on a good set of flip flop hubs perhaps? I'm really new to this but this project will be a fun learning experience. Thanks again!
