Take the wings off and get it into your garage....

Not a bad idea. You can probably strip and paint that entire C-152 for
under $2,000 in materials. If you're not comfortable holding a spray gun,
you can get an auto body guy to spray it in your garage. Or, even better,
most decent size towns have a few spray booths that can be rented on
weekends. I painted my own plane, but found several individuals who would
have sprayed it for a nominal (cash) donation IF I did all the prep work.
