Final decision:
I'll clean and condition the leather.
I'll clean the lining.
I'll scrub the green crud off the zippers.
I'll get a new main zipper installed.
Accomplishing those things will make it feel more like MINE! It'll be ready to rock.
This is my favorite post. I actually laughed when I read it:
Thanks for all the feedback!
That sounds great, some pre/post "restoration" pictures would be great if you can!
