Hi,
No RA25s in there yet, but considering it is an Oz magazine and you may have the only RA25 in this country, that's not really surprising! 
If the Celica has not been resprayed before (ie: still original paint) and is in very good condition you will probably not need to go back to bare metal all over. But I would be surprised if there were not a few areas (eg: front valance below the bumper) that have stone chips and should be bare-metalled for best results.
If the car has been resprayed before once or twice the paint will be too thick, will chip easily and you may have problems with reaction with the old paint. Definitely go bare-matal in that case.
There's paint jobs that look good from 10 feet away for $1,000 and take one day, and at other end of the spectrum there's perfect paint jobs that win shows for $10,000 and take weeks. Both are achievable, you just have to decide how much time and/or money you want to spend on the old girl...
Cheers.
