I thought newer cars were unibodies and couldn't have their roofs cut off without completely fucking up the structural integrity? How does this work?

Well spent imo

It doesn't look like they welded that roof on in the webm but I could be wrong

Well, the way I saw it done with a Charger on the show about West Coast Customs was that they basically cut the body off a new car, bought an old car with a good body, then simply stuck the old body on the new chassis and then tweaked it to fit.

I think they just used quarter panels, the inside frame of the original Mustang looks like it's still intact

The extra stands in the middle of the car are to stop the body flexing after the roof is removed, once the roof is reattached they are no longer needed. Even so it is kind of a cheap way to change the roofline on a unibody. A better solution would be to weld in support bars before taking the roof off. A couple of bars across the door opening before taking the roof off would have guarenteed that no part of the body bends or twists while being worked on.

That welder sure moves around a lot for him not to be doing any welding. I suppose it must just always be in his way, then?
