Looks like it's coming back together nicely. What are your plans for the hole in the roof? Same donor?

Yeah i think they stopped with the small window mid 67.

Thanks!I came up short on the donor piece so ill have to make a filler piece.I was afraid of this.That's why i wanted to do this repair here.The boss has all the metal shaping tools.I have to finish all the metal work on the roof and put the windshield in tomorrow.
