I totally agree with you on patina - it's only in original paint once. In this case though i think a resto is the way to go, that new paint looks as if it's taken something away from the crispness of the lug work not to mention the loss of chrome.
Do you have any clues as to what the original colour was? It looks as if there's a few layers of primer on there?
