the cyclone was dropped from the range in 1976 so yours must be earlier than 1977 or it's a super mistral fastback (but it hasn't got the seatwrap over though) http://homepage.ntlworld.com/nkilgariff/ for loads of holdsworth info.
personally i'd keep it as it is, i repainted mine but it had been painted before in hammerite (and not so smooth)
