Another Holdsworth frame dating question

Hejira 858

Retro Newbie
Hi,
I've recently inherited most of a Holdsworth based cycle (frame and wheelsets, plus brakes), but have no information on age.
From searching the available databases, I reckon the frame is mid-80's - the frame number is 6 digit, starting 901***, (athough the forks could be earlier - sloping crown).
Wheels are Campag hubs with Alesa rims and Suntour freewheel, and the brakes are Shimano.
As none of these components match any mid-80's Holdsworth model, I'm wondering if it was built up from just a Holdsworth frame.
Any thoughts?
Thanks

From what I can see it looks a bit bland ! It might be that the finish is a pearl or mica whereby it sparkles in the sunshine like a red Avanti 501 that I had .
The style of graphics may give a clue to its identity ?
