Did the same for my 79 with a set of bone yard spares.  I found the
rubbing alcohol removed the old finish much better than Jasco, or this
other super stuff called "Aircraft Paint Remover".  

I used 5 coats of clear gloss Verithane with 600 grade sanding between.

We applied an Elm burl venier.  It looks like the wood in a Rolls.

Hang pieces verticle to avoid dust accumulation on final coats.

Nice.  Real Nice.
