Far nicer than the factory ever did them. Looks very nice...think you should be just fine!

Thanks Leif, but does that mean I need to re-do it?

Jack,

For your 1963 there are 15 points total for the Originality column on the frame. If you count Finish as 20%, that’s 3 points.
You could paint it pink and theoretically lose no more than that.

You’re fine.

Patrick has given you great advice. Your frame looks great!!

Thanks everyone. This was my 3rd attempt at it to match black & white pictures I have seen. Never going to match factory but as close as I can get it. Working with asphalt is just plain nasty so I will go with it as is. If I had to do it over again I would have just taken Patrick's advice and painted it pink. Barbie would have liked it.
