Got motivated again today and started to clean up some of the paint. I took a scrub brush from the kitchen and got all the moss and crap off of it only to find that there's a bunch of tree sap on there also! I tried a couple of solvents, but it's so old and solid that the best thing I could find is a 90 degree edge on the back of a marker that I had laying around. It's a slow process to bust every little dripping of sap off, but I think it will be worth it in the end.

After I got the moss and sap off, it was looking tons better, but I took some 1000 grit sandpaper to it anyway and wet sanded an area on the hood. It lightened the area up considerably and the dark underneath is starting to show through some more.

It started raining as soon as I thought about grabbing the camera.
