Why worry about it?

If the paint is good enough that it's not blatently obvious that it's been repainted, then it has pretty damn good paint. The newest classic are ten years old and the odds of them never having had a scatch is pretty remote. The obsession with original paint is like guys who get all hinky about marrying a virgin--the truth is that you aren't going to find too many classic 900s that are "virgins." Unless you're going to keep your car in a museum, it's going to get nicks, chips and dings, there's nothing you can do to stop it, so why worry?
