Need motor color opinion

#1
I just finished this and I love the vintage color and engine and then after doing some painting on the rest of it I’m worried that I need to upgrade the motor color to. What’s your opinion. Leave it or paint it if so, what’s a good color?

I found this black motor this morning.Saving copper motor for another build. I would feel better painting this black one over the copper but I think the black looks good. I don’t want it to polished looking I want a more survivor look with some used cleaned up parts and this fits.

I had a blast today . I had four separate parts come loose. The set screws on my jack shaft gears kept coming loose. I’m gonna have to blue lock tight them. The black engine is new to me. Someone else put the exhaust on that fell out. I had to put it on a little tighter, but overall it was a win..
