Welcome to the forums, Rat Pack. I am in the process of refinishing the interior on my '67 Safari too and am having good success by sanding off the old finish, beginning with 60 grit and working my way up through 220. I should warn you that the veneer is very thin and you need to be careful not to burn through it - I had been advised not to use a power sander to accomplish this but it has not been a problem for me. Don't know if veneer thickness is different between years, but I'd think if there is any, mine would be thinner since my coach is 8 years newer. Check out my thread "67 Safari renovation" to see comments and details - I also talk about my trials and tribulations of interior removal...also go through the forum archives and read what others have done. This forum is a font of information! Good luck, Diane
