man i don't want to be a downer but i would do some more practicing on welding before i would weld a roof skin on that could potentially be a safety issue in a crash there is a ton of puddling with the weld where it didn't make good penetration btw if you don't want your body filler to crack work the metal with a body hammer and dolly rule of thumb you never want more than a 1/4 of filler or you're very likely to have cracking especially something that doesn't have a lot of support like a roof for instance theres quite a bit of flexing in most ... evercoat makes some of the best body fillers rage gold is the best if you can afford it .. if not z-grit isn't bad but cheap both are heads and tails better than bondo brand
