I already figured I would be doing the roof skin and full quarters that's not realy the problem. The issue is that they cut through the roof frame. Would it be structuraly ok to butt weld the roof structure at the c piller and a pillars?

BTW it's a R/T car 440 auto pp1 red, black top interior and stripe so I feel it's worth a little effort to try and save it.



Are you saying that instead of skinning the roof they cut it all the way through the A and C pillars? Then welded it back together?



Yes that's exactly what was done.



I've had a lot of Chargers and torsional ridgidity is not their strong suit. If it was me I'd fix it right if the car was worth it. The big problem is you need to make sure the car is true.

I would peel it back like an onion. I would remove the quarters and the old roof. Build a brace to hold the car in a true position and then rebuild the roof understructure with good pieces. Then fit new quarters and roof skin - then spot weld or plug weld them on.

This is not an amatuer job.

Good luck.
