I'm no expert, but at a glimpse this does not look like a 60s Colnago to me. The Colnago stamped into the flutes at the top of the seatstays suggests early 80s. (Possibly late 70s?).

I'm with you Dave. The seller appears misinformed. The stamping on the seat-stay caps looks exactly like that on a 1980s Colnago tandem... they probably used the same oversized seat-stays for this bike, and had the cap to match. The lugs suggest 1983-1985. Also, early Colnago pistas have a distinctive fork-crown, not in evidence on this bike.
