You can never get that patina back once its sanded away. Id keep the body as-is, make the car as driveable as possible and maybe do the body down the road if you change your mind.

It looks like it might be faded red oxide primer. Maybe try wiping it off with laquer thinner in a test spot.
I'll try that, thanks. The problem is the paint under it is checked and falling off. Im afraid thats what's going to come with it. It is what it is.
Ive found some really great videos on how to accelerate patina. Good chance I strip it, paint it, and then re-patina is this winter.
