Currently in the process of redoing a 59. The body man called today after thinking we were in the home stretch and found out the welds busted from rust at each rear corner of the roof. Does anyone have or know where I can find a roof for the car. Doesn't have to be perfect just useable. Thanks.

There was one restored '59 Skyliner in Sweden which ended up into a Swedish junk yard in 2012.

It had been in an accident where another car crushed the rear so badly it was beyond repair. Not sure what parts of the car are left as it's been 5 years since this happened but I'd say it's worth a try. Good useable roofs are not easy to find without rest of the car coming with the deal.
