How would you get it in there?

We've heard that in some old houses, the expandable foam can help
insulate in spots where there was no insulation.  It can be blown into
cracks etc.

When we had our remodel job done couple years ago, one of the things
they did was remove all the old aluminum siding (which they sold as high
priced scrap metal), then they wrapped the house in a plastic called
TyVec which helps to form a vapor barrier against drafts.  New vinyl
siding went on top of that.

What is your exterior wall?  I've seen it, but don't recall.

I'd agree that is a prime place to want new insulation, especially since
you have none there now.  Second would be attic.
