I have seen in books that value cars (any type) that place higher value on original condition when it is in very good including the paint OR are very well done restoration including paint. So I would think the question would be, if the original paint is in very good condition but you want it to shine like new, are you willing to spend the money on a very good one (not an Earl Shibes or MAACO)? We couldn't even begin to really give you accurate advice over the internet because it is so hard to value paint quality and color by a picture. Your best bet would be to have some people that know cars (maybe members of a car club) to look at it in person, and if they recommend re-paint, then a shop with a good reputation.
