I've seen the brake pads. Take a look at the 'pic of the day' thread, you know the one? Drillum Dude colorized one. Really nice.
Eclipse racks, yes, I remember those as well. But the ones I remember didn't look like that.
Nice bike! Going camping? My touring bike is of the same vintage, which is... well, not quite ideal. Touring bikes got better a couple years later when cantilever brakes came back into fashion.
