Well after 2 1/2 years of ownership its finally time for new paint. In order to help out the painter and really for me to spend time cleaning and polishing the parts I stripped off the trim as best I could. I left the door handles for him so he could get in and out of it, but removed the interior door panels so he could get to them easily. I also left all of the stainless trim around the windows, I was afraid I would not be able to get it as tight as the original. In my case the wood is fairly good, so I am masking it off. I will then use a paintless dent repair guy to remove any dings and dents out of the wood grain areas.
So far I am extremely pleased that I am not uncovering any rust areas. I repaired the two lower rear quarters, the previous owner lived on a long gravel driveway on a ranch in Wyoming. Other than that, just a small bubbling area at the front marker light.
In a couple of weeks she will be shining like a new penny.
