Unknown frame identification
So about a year back I bought a frame off of craigslist. I didn’t realize what I had because the frame has been completely stripped and repainted. There is not even a head badge. I went home for the weekend and was inspecting the bike and realized there are campagnolo rear dropouts. So I decided to bring the frame up to college with me to build it up, but I would like to identify the frame. A guy at the bike shop said the frame may be a late 70’s, early 80’s touring frame. I was unable to find much online regarding the serial number. Any help identifying the year, and/or make of the frame would be much appreciated! Things to note: the rear dropout spacing is 126mm (I don’t have a ruler around but I put my 130mm wheel in and I had to span the dropouts for it to fit which led me to believe 126), there are also cable stops where the shifters braze on’s would normally be mounted, there is only one bottle rack mount which is located on the down tube, and the cable guides run above the bottom bracket instead of underneath the bottom bracket.
The serial number is 0949
