This is probably what I'll do for the next car, for the same reasons.
Allan, have a look at this page:
http://www.mig-welding.co.uk/paint-stripping.htm (the whole site has some great advice I've found).
The most interesting thing mentioned here is Gibbs brand lubricant which can be used to protect bare metal surfaces from oxidation. I've been trying to get some in Oz, but there wasn't a retailer/importer. Searching tonight, it appears there is one now (I have no affiliation with these guys):
http://www.gibbsbrandaustralia.com.au/ It's a bit pricey though, but is supposed to be very good.
