Paint question

This may strike a cord with a few but I plan to fully restore this duster. But...part of me really wants it to stay as is.. Ichanged fenders so they need to be matched how hard ya think that would be? Or at that point would it be nearly the same to paint the whole car.... It's just old school cool hate to cover it..

The fender that can be seen didn't look bad. I love the look of the day 2 cars. As found has character and there is a story in there somewhere. Once restored, it is gone and (I hate to say just another car) I would spend the time to try and save the fenders so they match. Or like mentioned, a paint shop should be able to get very close. Only your key fits, do as you wish that makes you happy and enjoy it.
