Those pictures are that bad with the glare back you can't tell if it is or isn't.
I had the same problem when i took some pics of my natty and ended throwing the towel in and trying again another day.

Check the 'yellowing' around the seat mast upper and lower. That's a sure sign of a re-chrome  :daumenhoch:

The rust in the steerer tube too looks like 'new' rust, another sure sign.  <<< I'm sure Sawzall and Animal will know what I mean by that  ::)  :LolLolLolLol:

I would say rechromed, the decals dont look right either, the green is too lime, should be a darker green for original like these
