My recent purchase Frankin Bike

1988 Miyata Nine Twelve
The seller was the second owner and listed this bike as completely original. If this bike could talk..... the stories it could tell. I was exspecting the bike to be Shimano 66. I found two different brifters and a re- spoked rear hub.\
I think there are some good upgrades but I was exspecting all original. What do you think?
