Yeah, a wording mistake on my part, that I realized after I hit the send button. Just meant to say that it was not a top of the line or historically significant bike that one should feel guilty about swapping parts on - or at least I wouldn't. Others may disagree. Doesn't seem like much would need to be swapped though - other than the derailleurs and perhaps the wheels depending on hub and rim quality/condition - hard to tell from the photo's.
