Here's a tip I gleaned from the model car people.  Go to the auto parts store 
(The WWW if your parts store doesn't have it.) and buy a gallon of 'Super 
Clean' degreaser.  Soak your shells in it until the paint literally falls off.  
Sometimes in less than a day, sometimes a couple of days, depending on the kind 
of paint you're trying to remove.  Works like a champ.  Removes the paint, 
leaves the shell untouched.  Check out the story yourself on the web.  It's 
well documented (at least the last time I looked.)

I have used it on a lot of old Flyer and Lionel shells.  Worked every time!  
It's magic!
