Someday it will get a black paintjob!

Congratulations! That's a very nice specimen. (and with very nice German keycaps, too!)
But please think carefully before painting it, because the original paint is in quite good condition and - unless done very professionally - a repainted keyboard can become a very sticky, unpleasant affair. Especially with a keyboard like this, where the case acts also as a wrist rest.

Hey man, really a belvedere your little beast. I think the best specimen among all the beamsprings I have seen around. Do you use it as daily driver? and if yes how do you do with key layout. What key do you miss more. Del key, alt, ctrl, command or something else?
