I have to ask: what is a "more appropriate donor"?
I don't want the nice nickel finish to contrast with scratches and pits.
If I fall out of love with the pinto I can always reverse the alteration, as several others have said. It's not like I'm going to throw away the blue barrel and cylinder.

That's a nice looking Chiefs, it appears to be every bit as nice as my new 49.
Ah, well, a 40! Yes, me, too, but even I would have a problem altering one of them. Maybe if I had a blue one and a nickel one I could make two two-tone Centennials!
