Option C: Fill the dings, order some cans of nitro and try finishing it yourself.
I've done a nitro finish on a couple of my guitars, I don't think I'd do it again. Unless you want to do it for the experience, or really enjoy finishing, it's 100% not worth the money not to get Rich ("The Welsh Paint Wizard") to do it. I think a sunburst telecaster body in nitro was £140 when he did one of mine.
Mine took ages, needed a lot of sanding and the finish was only 'ok'. I'm actually thinking of getting Rich to refinish one of them.

Looks like a cool guitar.

That’s what I’d do. In fact I’m sitting at home right now waiting for some cans to be delivered. It’s easier than most people think, although you do need to be really methodical, and very careful about things like humidity, temperature, face-masks and ventilation.
