I was wondering about the brake caliper arms themselves. If they don't say Campagnolo on 'em, they're likely the first version of those brakes, and would help pinpoint the bike's date more closely. Also, on the back of the crank arms they'll say STRADA, and possibly have a single digit # in a diamond - that would also help with the date (though I think pre '73 may not have that diamond). If no diamond on the cranks with a #, then I'd want to see more pics of the cranks to determine if they were the earlier, more "square" profile, or that used from about '70-'71 on (later type arms had more of a chamfer, making them look thinner). Also, assuming the rear derailleur is Nuovo Record, does it say patent on top with a year date? Of course, through the years lots of parts could have been swapped, but those Campagnolo dates sometimes do help...
