Sorry about the misfire on the last post!

"Colnagos come in a fairly wide range of colors at that time. The best is the "electric blue" in my opinion. The shifter braze-ons have to come off. I think shifter bosses come standard on Colnago somewhere around '74. Obviously no cable guides. I don't remember about the W.B. bosses off hand; but Joe Bell will know, since he has an original '73 that is a really "super" Super."

Brian, I had a '73 Electric blue. IIRC, it did have shifter braze-ons and one set DT water bottle bosses. It was not marked "super". That bike was wrecked and I don't have it any more (except the fork) and its possible my memory is not accurate, but for what its worth...... Wish I still had that bike!
