did it always come with such low end parts?

No

and no rust patches originally either!

Looks like somebody found this in the back of the shed, and put new components on it because all the other stuff was rusty. Shame.

Quite a bit of work to get that back up to scratch. Maybe he thought that the colour scheme would hide the rust?

That's what I remember. And it wasn't a stump jumper, wasn't it a hoo koo e koo or similar.

Yep....HKEK in drag. This one will hopefully go cheap at least, I'm sure I've seen some opportunists try to sell these for high prices in the past :?

Somebody bring on the Wolfman klein again!

yes, the hookooekoo; not a stumpjumper.

People have tried, but not succeeded, selling these things as collectibles and for more than they were worth new. Retail was $650 back in the day. Cool paint/graphics, but that was about it.
