Good thing I used a blurry picture then!
In reality, it has dozens of chips, scrapes and scratches to show for it's hard use over 50k+ miles and 44 years of service. There is a 5" long scratch along the drive side of the toptube just aft of the middle brake cable clamp that was there before I even bought the bike! That is why I was able to buy it new in Oct '76 at a discounted price as a scratched floor model.
But yes, I DO love that candy blue color combined with the chrome socks!
