I think it's original Al. It looks plated and the original seller never had a premium price on it. When I asked if it was silver as it was a bad picture, seller replied yes, so I took a gamble, only come in the post yesterday morning J.

Could this be a totally unique model?

I may be mistaken, but i dont think I have ever seen one with a silver/chromed rider. I don't have any examples of the #33in my collection. So I am not familiar all the known rider/bike colour combinations.

Nice find Tim!

I would say plated Mick, it doesn't look home done.
