I can't imagine there are many fillet brazed frames from 70's or 80's?
I have a frame which is similar and is a Condor Baracchi built in 1971 by Vic Edwards.
I checked the frame number with Condor in email and they came back a few weeks later.
It has very similar features to yours i.e. fillet brazed (obvs), fastback seatstays (I think they're called), semi sloping Cinelli crown. All the Barachi's had slightly different features I think depending on year of manufacture and customer requirements, so crowns changed, dropouts and some had mudguard eyes.
I see from the thread you have have the frame number it might be worth dropping condor an email?
My particular frame number started with a V as Vic Edwards used this prefix when building for Condor, apparently.
Lovely looking frame by the way.
good luck
p.s. if it helps, my frame and forks is very similar in size and is confirmed by Condor as being built with butted 531, I could weight it if it helps?
edit: I've just checked a snap and my seatstays at teh seat cluster at are different, i have fastback and I think yours are called "shot in".
