I think the paint on mine is gone, not so much because it is oxidized, but because it is chipping off (I don't see any prep work done and overspray everywhere). Plus there are unfortunately some newer dents (since painted) in the fenders that the paint is chipping from. The good news is I am working on some bartering for paint and body from a very reputable guy (who just so happens to do his side work in a barn down the street from me). I have been very impressed with the work I've seen.

Also the vinyl top has been removed (turns out to be a good thing, I could see that there was no rust) so I want to get the paint done before the new top.
