Quick update today, doing some odds and ends while trying to keep everything moving forward. My Dad sourced some of this amazing stuff called titanium putty. It's a pretty amazing product, and for my application it seems to be working wonderfully. In a few areas of the roof the original skin is thin, but not enough so that we needed or wanted to patch pieces in. So, after a little grinding to clean up the spots, the titanium putty is worked into the surface and let to cure. After the putty is cured, it's as solid as a rock. It takes a grinding disk to shape it to the rest of the roof.
Only got a few good pictures of this step, but if you look closely the gray is the putty. Some had to be applied along the body line above the rear window on the roof side. Some rust/pitting took place above the roof/quarter panel seam and this is where Dad is sanding the putty down here.
