Deon, all I can say is; "enjoy"
And couple of tips, if you think you need to take a little longer on something to get it right then you might as well.
Most importantly, make sure you have some shiny things on it when you finish..

Nice work Deon, the paint's coming off heaps cleaner on your shell than it is on mine. Probably cause I'm using the cheap ass paint stripper. Get
something on that bare steel soon!!

Bizarre, I was thinking the same thing. Nothing worse than crusty little paint edges around the windows.
Maybe they dont want to pull the interior, but they could always just mask the windows up to save the headliner.
