Turk I agree that glass beading is close to the look your looking for but it will get dirty and you will not be able to clean it. I did a resto on a 62 fuel inj. vette and had the same issue. First we blasted it with glass, then using a custom blend of mathews paint we match an acrylic polyurethane enamel to it, then we top coated it with 80 percent gloss clear. You couldn't tell it from the origanal peice and cleaned up easy for the shows.
