I have an RV-6 "fix-r-up-r". The left fuel tank was crunched by the landing gear during a flip over.

I'm just asking about the tank here... I see three options:
1 - Completely rebuild a new tank with mostly new everything
2 - Salvage the major bits and bobs but new aluminum
3 - Pull it all apart carefully just replace the damaged skin and ribs and reseal
If someone has done this before, let me know which is how they went?
Thanks!
