I think that original paint is very important, but I also think that a car can be a survivor and have a repaint. Bloomington states that three of the four areas being original qualify a car as Survivor. Benchmark (Bloomington and Survivor) requires four of four areas.

I've owned two Bloomington Survivor cars that were very original and both had repaints. The remainder of the cars were very original. I would call both nice, unrestored cars.
