Looks like a late-70's Super. If is doesn't have "Colnago" stamped into the seatstay caps, it's late 70's. If it does have "Colnago" in the caps it's probably circa '80-81.

Looks like a later 70's Colnago Super. If it has nutted style brakes then probably around '76-'78 or so. If recessed '79-'80 or close.

Check Greg Softley's ebay store "cyclomondo" or seller gts753 for a decal set.

Good call, but the spool chainstay bridge almost certainly points to the later time period. The "line-in-the-sand" in this case is the "Colnago" in the caps or not, ATMO.

In the first pic I thought for sure it had the plain fluted caps, but the new ones show they are lettered so definitely a later one.

what would you say its worth

IMO, not a ton. But then Colnagos can be tough to figure - they can go for more than the rarity and quality would tend to suggest. This one is nothing special, IMO, but as I say, difficult to predict.

Moving to Values and Appraisals.

I wish you guys wouldnt be so quick to move threads. Sometimes they need to stay in the main section as it gets the most traffic and thats where the most knowledgable members on certain topics tend to congregate.
