The stem is 3ttt.

Patent date on the rear derailleur is 73.

And one of the first things I noticed was the extra long horizontal dropouts. I immediately thought, fixed gear conversion! But then changed my mind when I noticed the quality parts.

I think I may turn it into a project to make it full Campy (from the time period). Def get rid of the 27"s and get 700c's and relace the hubs. With a brown Brooks, it would be complete.
Are you sure the brakes will work with 700c rims?
