i have a 79 cadillac m&m endloader and we're in the beginning stages of restoring her. we're starting w/the roof, or at least that and all the other rusty areas, but the roof is the worse part and biggest. took off the landau roof covering bc we could tell there was a lot of rust under there......which theres a ton of it. anyways, we like the look of the vinyl roof but it seems like the vinyl had helped a lot with the rust so we're thinking of putting something different back on there that would maybe withstand a little more time, more durable. we're pretty much set on using a bed liner material bc we think it would give us the material type texture and it would be kind of cool, different, and durable. wanted some input or to see if anyone else had any other ideas. we don't really have any money to spend on this except for what we have to spend on materials. also, if anyone has any pics of roofs done w/spray on bed liner i'd appreciate it. and i'm assuming it'll stick to the body work we're going to have to do to fix the holes in the roof right?
heres a pic of her, so you can see its going to be a big job!
more up close of the roof, you can see the rust under the vinyl here better
and i'll have to take pics of the rust under it now that the vinyls off, if anyone even cares or responds to this... thanks in advance for those who do!
