I have a surly single speed mountain bike I bought off a guy who bought if off a guy who painted over the frame. Is there anyway to identify the make/model so I can get the right parts on it. I know it's on 29's. Well I don't know it that's what I was told.

Most likely, if it is a 29er, it is a Karate Monkey and came built up with:

Crankset/BB Surly Mr. Whirly, Forged aluminum. 94mm BCD spider. 33t Surly stainless chainring. Black arms, silver ring

Chainguard Salsa Ring Dinger, Black

Freewheel Shimano singlespeed, 3/32". 18t

Chain SRAM, PC-870. 3/32"

Headset Ritchey Logic Comp, 1-1/8" threadless, w/ 30mm spacers.
Stem Kalloy, 1-1/8" threadless. Forged. 25.4mm clamp diameter. Black
Handlebars Surly Torsion Bar, 25.4mm clamp diameter. 666mm wide
Grips Velo Kraton, Rubbery. Black
Brake Levers Avid Speed Dial 7, Destroy all monsters
Brakes Avid BB7, Cable-actuated disc. 160mm rotors front and rear
Seatpost Kalloy SP-342, 27.2mm x 350mm. Single-bolt cradle clamp. Black
Saddle WTB SST, Viny cover. Cro-mo rails. Black

Hubs Surly New model hubs, 32h. Nutted rear axle, QR front axle. Black

Of course Surly also sold the frameset so it could be entirely different.

That's it exactly. Karate Monkey isn't that old of model though? I got this last month. Is it a model they keep in production?

Yep, the Monkey is still in production.
