Dirt Disciple
As far as I am aware, Nuovo Mexicos were only made between 1983 -1986 and in comparatively small numbers. I don't think the tubing was changed during this time - always "Columbus SL Record" profiled ( ie crimped) The crimping was 2 along the top tube, 4 along the down tube. ( symmetrical of course - 1 and 2 each side respectively).
It may be of some interest to note that my bike was purchased from Italy ( yes I know, they all are but mine was actually bought from an Italian owner) and it might just differ in some respects , although not tubing I would have thought , from an "export" model.
I don't have much literature on Colnagos. What I have is of little use for the older ones. I gave away a lot of posters for the plastic era to the chap who bought my C50 Anniversary. I have a couple of posters stored somewhere that relate to the transitional period but really they are of little use.
I attach some pics of what I have ( or at least can put my hand to.)
If you need a much better archive go to 2Velo.com.
There is a Colnago catalogue specific to a Colnago Ferrari, one model only, currently for sale @ £350.00 (!!!)
