I found the fastest and easiest way to remove the veneer was to grind the heads off the nails with a disk grinder, pull veneer off the walls and then to pull the nails out of the studs.
After all the veneer was removed, I took all the insulation out to reveal the wiring and plumbing. When I reached the point of replacing the insulation I would use 3/4 " Styrofoam insulation.
As you can see from the photo below the framing and studs below the windows had a lot of water damage. As a result of the damage from leaking around the windows, which is common on these Shastas, I will need to replace any damaged wood. The vertical studs were replaced with pine and the wood framing that the studs were attached to were replaced with treated pine.
