Window Frames painted Black by PO

Guys,
The PO of my 73T painted all of the window frames black. I am not sure if it's because the chrome finish was badly scratched or he just liked the look.
Here is the question... I believe that the early SWB (i.e. 1965-68) window frames were chrome plated with bronze underneath. Were the later (1969-73) window frames aluminum alloy or chrome plated as well? If they are aluminum and not chrome plated, shouldn't I be able to just polish the black paint and any light scratches out without wearing down the finish?
