I have a 60's Cinelli Pista and I can tell you that other than yours is obviously hacked/chopped, mine is very much the same. Ser#763 on mine. All other features are identical. Same lug profiles, same dropout, chain stay dimples, seat cluster, fork crown and location of the ser#. Seat stay and chain stay bridges are as cockeyed as a barrel of snakes straight from the factory.
Mine has had several owners(I know all of them) and paint jobs over the years but the original owner claims the original paint was silver. In fact I've never seen a 60's Cinelli race bike that wasn't silver.
It is too bad yours has been so horribly modified. Good luck with that restoration.
