Contact AMD ( Auto Metal Direct ) They are the best company for quality body parts.

He needs more than what AMD sells. Is the "boot" made of fiberglass??? The car looks interesting. It may be better to finish the custom into a promod and drive it that way.

hello!! thanks to both for answer and give me your opinions..the detail is that ok I can buy skins and quarter's in amd but the car needs the internal skeleton of the roof and its rear base .. maybe someone can get some donor who can cut the roof of his car to the as more or less what I need to make a union of both!! dont you think? ( sorry for my bad english by the way )

Your English is fine. Either way you do the car, you will need parts. Are the rear side windows still on the car?

Thanks men! the car lost all the roof and windows the old men just keep only the windshield.. for that i know i have to do a huge work for restore that body, the only thing that makes me nervous is not getting a complete roof of a donor .. because I'm sure that just buying skins or rooms not will repair the roof in a good way

I'm sure you can get a donor roof. Just the cost to get all the parts you need (plus labor to fix) shipped there might out way the cost of another car shipped there. I think its kind of cool the way it is like Challenger6pak said.

If the car were mine I would go with a removable hardtop using seals like an old Ramcharger.
