Wrecked '65 Porsche 356 repair video

[GM]

This is a mesmerizing video - part of a series that begins at Part 1, where the background story is given.
This is Part 2 with the roof repair - it's a silent video in high speed, which makes it fun and addictive!

That is fun. Thanks.

In a week or two, this 356 will be getting some real $bidder$ attention on BAT!!

and oh, it's nice to be young.

Looks interesting,  I’m no engineer, however not sure of the structural integrity of the Porsche once that has been done

So, the roof has been ‘stretched’ in the crash, and then the garage is effectively stretching it back the other way? Thought the molecular structure of the pressed steel roof would be a little ‘’buggered’’ , to put it technically? So, though they make it look nice, if the car has a big accident again, the roof has already lost most of it strength

Maybe one of our esteemed engineers within the group will enlighten me?

I don't think these roofs would have much strength in the first place - the pagoda would probably fare better in a rollover!
Actually it looks more like something dropped on it rather than having rolled.

There would have strength surely where the roofline meets the side panels which also appear to have been ‘popped’ back up on the offside rear?
