Help for a mopar guy...with a non-mopar.

This may become a long boring thread, but i cant help that.
I am a tried and true mopar lover, i own six, but i was raised in a chevy family and i don't have as much hate for chevys as some. I did acquire the subject car as a favor to a long time friend however. My girlfriends sister, that has been my friend for at least thirty years found a new,for her anyway, camaro that she wanted. I bought her old camaro from her, so she could have the down payment on her new one.
What i bought was an immaculate 95 z28 with a very freshly built stock lt1 350, that i planned to use as a cheap transportation car, or maybe a not-so-fast bracket racer, and then maybe hop it up a little later.
At the time of purchase i had no room at my house in california so i put it at a friends house in arizona.
Here is where the story turns to s#!t.
Since there was nobody living in the house full time, it was burglarized, and among the many things gone, the garage was broken into, and the camaro literally dragged out with a chain. (The battery was dead).
Unfortunately , the keys were in the house.
I found out later, that my camaro was the get away car for a group of armed robbery/burglar gang.
All of this is to explain why i need help.
When we came back to arizona for the weekend,and discovered the robbery, we reported to the police. Apparently the robbers were monitoring the house, realized the camaro was no longer of any use as a getaway car, so they abandoned it, in an upscale neighborhood, on the sidewalk, out of gas. Mind you, this car was immaculate, before it was stolen.
This is what i got back....

This car had the nice chrome rims on one side only, painted flat black, door and front fender on drivers side painted a flat black, nose painted primer and flat black, the headlights covered with blue something, i still dont know what, or why, a thick coat of unknown primer unbelievably badly sprayed much too thick on the hood, some thin primer on the passenger fender, and the door locks, windows, and rear hatch damaged.
It turned my stomach so bad, i couldn't look at it. When my friend saw what happened to her old camaro, she threw up. I parked it, and basically wrote it off.
Here comes the point of this sad story. I found out how cheap this thing was to register in arizona, and now i want to bring it back.
Simple answer would be to take it to maaco and get a cheap spray job, but there are no "economy" paint shops local where the car is. So im wondering what might be possible to deal with the mess. What can i try to remove the awful paint/primer that the thieves sprayed on this poor thing? Mild paint remover? D.A. sander? Rubbing compound and a buffer?
What about the wheels? Chrome with a factory clear coat? Plastic chrome plate center caps, i have no clue how to clean.
Unfortunately, i should have tried to clean this up months ago, but i couldn't stand the sight of it. Now that i'm willing to work on it, i dont know what to do. I am NOT in ANY way a paint and body guy, but advice from professionals is welcome.

I would try lacquer thinner on a rag... It may or may not harm the original paint, usually it doesn't but mid 90's GM paint isn't a tough as some paints...

Well 33 IMP let me be the first to say what a shame to what has occurred. I'm like you in many ways. I'm very devoted to MoPar too, but also own GM products and others as well. I had a good friend (long departed) who was a dyed-in-the-wool Blue Oval guy for fifty years. He loved his Fords for sure but was the first to say he admired and accepted all brands. And that's what makes this hobby so great. We are all different but remarkably the same. I absolutely think 1 Wild R/T is on the right track, but to add to that I may advise getting a hold of a pro body guy, and also a pro auto detailer to look at it. There are many, many good products being released all the time now that might be useful for the repair. Finally, I'm usually pretty calm on this site but I sure hope the police find the little f**ks that stole it and cut their balls off.

33 what a shame to any car. First I would look the whole car over and see how much you are going to be in to it. I can only think what the suspension must be like. Etc etc just saying if they tore it up what's the cost to get it back. Sorry for what happened and good luck.
