I'm not a huge fan of Guerciottis generally, and I think they were somewhat inconsistent even before TSD. Do you know if, at the time the OP's bike was built, Guerciotti was still using pressed lugs? In "The Custom Bicycle," (written late 70's) it says they were chamfering the seatstay topeyes, which would be interesting if true, since a lot of folks were using plugs by that point.
