This is the correct answer, because the crayon is on such a large surface. If it was a smaller area trying to chemically remove the crayon would be OK but at this point, redoing the whole house is the way to go (remember, time is money even if its your own time).
Sand everything, skim coat everything, texture everything and paint everything. Assuming 1000 sq foot house: First day 4-6 hours sanding everything down and start mudding. Second day: finish mudding... and start drinking (it is a short day anyway, 4 hours tops). Third day: wake up hungover, realize it dont pay to get mad and drunk... move on with life and fixing things. Spray tex the house and paint. 3 days (2 1/2 but you got drunk) and about a grand to fix things. Just remember, it could be worse. And when you are done, its all the same eggshell color and the texture is all the same that you did yourself so future repairs will easily match (thats worth something).
*Walk away mumbling "It could be worse.... it could be worse"*

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
