re roofing a mustang isn't that bad, I did it to a rolled '95 in Boces. It came out good my only problem with it was welding inside the car in a non-air conditioned shop in 98F weather...talk about sweating your balls off....

Replacing headliners is easy. It is cloth glued to a fiber board insert. Pull the old off, and glue the new on. The reason headliners fall is because the cloth has a foam backing that is glued to the insert. The foam dries, falls apart, and the cloth sags.shady

Hey man, just a thought - could you just buy one of those universal sunroof kits? Most of them I have seen just require you to cut a hole in the roof, then do some minor reinforcing and drop the new glass in. This way you eliminate the rust without a new roof.

Another thing about cutting the roof. People perform choptop all the time. Tha's much worse that a pillar cut because you have to cut the pillars, cut the roof in quarters and remove metal. Maybe that could be an option...
