We are doing the same thing with our newly aquired '69 Safari. We have removed some of the panels and have found that they are oak veneer over plywood. Since we are going to change out the wood species on the inside, we are going to use them as templates. I have used Formby's products before. They make a product that is stipper that is very liquid that you can use a very fine steel wool with to remove the finish. I would try a small area first if your not familiar with stipping furniture. This product almost disolves the finish. It's not like the stuff you need to brush on and leave sit for a while. You could also sand it. However, if you don't sand it evenly, you might end up with a blotchy finish when you apply the new coat.
I'll be anxious to watch the series on DIY. Good luck.
