S/n looks to be 10180 to me.
Not sure what JRJ is.
I think the yellow is the original colour.

thanks.

Thank you for this additional information.
With regard to paint finish -
Note that there are two shades of yellow yet no primer on steerer or crown. However there is light grey primer on fork ends. This makes me think frame may have been blasted or otherwise stripped and painted yellow without a complete primer coat. Sign of a non-professional job.
Also possible there may have once been chrome.
When you remove the paint from the 1060 dropouts you should be able to read the Campagnolo name stamped therein. Their launch was 1967 when they appeared in catalogue nr. 15 of that year, page 31.
With regard to badging we should keep in mind that if a JRJ product it could just as easily have been badged with any one of their three marques. Following the fire at the Merlin facility they acquired the rights to that name.
Brad - JRJ is one of Bob Jackson's badges.
