Two points I agree with here are:

1. Since the body of a strat is solid, repaint will not adversely affect the sound, however...

2. If it's a vintage Strat manufactured before 1965 when Leo Fender sold the company, then the last thing in the world you'd want to do is refinish it.

You wouldn't refinish a Stradivarius because it's scratched, right?
Just find out what you have before you make any changes to it.
