Dreaded upper cab rust...

[mechanic58]

I posted an earlier thread about a pretty rare '63 SWB pickup that I recently acquired. The truck has a plaid valve cover'd 305 with a powerglide behind it and is very original and un-molested - runs and drives, good. The only real problem it has is the roof is damn near rusted off of it. The area where the windshield gasket is (along the top of the glass) and the top portion of both door jambs. I've done some searching and haven't really found any repair panels for these areas. I'm wondering if any other forum members have tackled this issue before and if they documented it with pictures. Post 'em up if ya gottem. The rest of the body on my truck is in pretty good shape; the bed is essentially rust-free and the floors have minimal rust. Small rust in the cab corners and at the bottoms of both front fenders, behind the wheel. All that stuff is easily repaired though...the roof has me worried. Here's a few pics of the damage:
