I don't want to remove the interior or engine but I'll remove everything else like bumper, headlights and that sort of stuff.

What are my options?

Yes! I like to work on edges, then do the rest.

Start out by stripping as instructed on the package, use a wire brush for small features, carefully. You will then need some #000 steel wool, a couple different scrub brushes, much hot soapy water, some towels, a big trashcan, the Sun, and a sprayable bottle of ospho, and a sealing primer.

(rattle can based on same paint you will use is 'ok')
