Identify an 80's Colnago?

I acquired this Colnago a few days ago. It belonged to a good friend who passed away a couple of years ago. I talked him into buying it (used) back in 88 so we could ride road bikes together as well as the mountain biking we were already really into.
It's a parts mish mash - some Campy Super Record with a Mavic bottom bracket, headset, stem, bars, and front derailleur. Dura Ace seat post.
Tubing is Columbus, I thought SL but it's main tubes and chain stays are fluted/crimped. Did they do a fluted SL?
I'm pretty sure the forks are replacements. Single set of bottle bosses on the DT.

I don't know much about Colnagos, I'm curious what the model and approximate vintage might be. From what I've gathered it may be a Super?



I haven't decided if restoring it or leaving it as is would be a more fitting tribute to my friend yet. Probably leave as is and just ride it.
But that fork is going to bug me
