    Would you just fix the puncture wounds and tail destruction and call it a day or are you talking about reglassing it completely?

    What makes you say that? I'm just curious, it's in better shape than the fun shape / LB. The repairs will be rather easy. Is it just ugly to you? Or do you see damage that I don't see?

    Either way id fix it but sometimes if they have a lot of little dings and puntures its almost quiker to do a reglass than to do each individual ding
    New glass can make it pop like new.

    Gotcha. I don't think i'm equipped or ready to do a full re-glass job at the moment. I know I can do the individual repairs one by one for sure, even if that takes more time. I just don't have all the tools to do a re-glass job in the time it would take you. So if I repair it, it's gonna have that ugly water damaged foam still.
