You might find this link useful as it contains copies of catalogues for a good number of years.

Based solely on the serial number your bike is a 1971 model (seven digits plus the first one being a 1) however this dating method is wrong about 50% of the time. My initial assessment is that it's a lower-end model from the early 70's. Regardless, it's well worth cleaning-up as it will be a really nice bike and lovely to ride.
