so here are some pics of my car just want some ideas on what I should do fix or replace. I dont think it will be air tight anymore but I dont care about that anyway. I see that people have replaced the roof skin before but can you straighten the pillars at all or I dont know any ideas would be great. Thanks mopar#1

I suppose the correct way would be to remove the roof at the factory welds and weld on a donor roof from a different car support frame and all.

Another possibility is to just cut out the section of the kinked area and weld in a donor piece but then you would still have to pound out damaged areas around the rear window for instance but this method would require alot more bondo .  The cheapie body jack at harbor freight would make quick work of most of the bends
