The finish work at the dropout/chainstay joint actually looks, ahem, fancier on your Super Olympic. The OP's looks more like Dr. Deltron's '75 Interclub:

Of course, it's a minor difference and doesn't rule out that it's a Super Olympic. But are there other details that would confirm one model or the other? Fork crown does look similar to joe v's, but I can't make out the dropout/chainstay joint on his (kinda looks like randyjawa's?)
