The 1979 Cubs had a problem with the dope not adhearing to the fabric. My last cub kind of looked like yours with the missing top coat. I took an air nozzle and started spraying and all the dope came off clean including the silver. Threw a coat of paint on it and it looked pretty good. That was just on the fuselage I did recover the wings and tail surfaces. I can't remember if Piper cut out all the inspection holes.
