Need a little help to figure out what to do here with my 69 Coronet roof. The two crossmembers that support the roof have seperated from the roof and have a downward bulge in them. There is rust between roof and crossmembers which I want to remove before reattaching the crossmember. I don't know if I should try and romove the spot welds on the ends, take thecrossmember completely out for easier access to rust or just work under them, between crossmember and roof. The amount of downward bulge is identical which makes me think this is a factory made aspect and the reverse bow is used for a structural aspect. Is the crossmember bowed down to start with and then pushed up and "glued" in place during assembly? Is this glued or am I not seeing some tack welds that may have come loose? I will post pictures when I get a chance but just wondered if anyone else has seen this issue and worked through it. Could use your help before I do something that mars the lines of the roof. Thanks Professors! Mocajava
