The Colnago Sport was a lower priced model introduced in the late 70's and aimed at the German and North American market.

They were mostly sold as complete bikes with good medium quality components. The frames lacked the cosmetic finish of the regular Colnagos and were made with less expensive tubing than standard Columbus SL or SP.

Several examples of Colnago Specials:

A quick Google search on Colnago Special comes up with a ton of links.
