its a survivor all right, remember once it is repainted, you cant unpaint it. and theres more painted ones around than survivors. maybe you should look up the term patina. once lost you can neve get it back.
I have a modle 1,2,3,4. in the same condition. I have replaced parts to get them complete. but I have left them with there original patina. I also have a 1,2,3,4. that were in very poor condition, that I have restored, and repainted.
this is only my personal view, but I love the survivors. and there histories.
what ever you do, have fun.
cheers chris
