Campy 8sp Integrated Levers w/7sp rear?

As a follow up to my other post asking about the max cluster on a 126mm spaced frame, now that 7sp freewheel appears to be the max, I want to figure out the front-end.

I'm trying to keep the build somewhat period, but also don't want this to be a garage queen, so would prefer to have integrated brakes/shifters versus downtube. I've read cases of Campy 8sp levers working with a 7 speed rear if using a Shimano HG freewheel and chain. Can anyone back that up? If so any Campy 8sp, non-indexed RD work? Is there an all Campy solution that works? My experience with Campy started at 10sp so any help is appreciated.
