I'm sure that's a dream find for 90% of the members here. I wish you success on your restoration project, I'd probably try to seal it and maybe do something with the paint remnants, but other than that leave the chips and cracks as-is, to me they add character and mystery. Whatever you do, have fun! I can't wait to see the progress pics! And once again, congratulations!
