Restoring a Rusted Roof

[Gregski]

My 68 coupe had a vinyl roof. One of the previous owners ripped off the vynil to allow it to breath and minimize the water damage. The vehicle sat outside in northern California but the roof still rusted. I would like to share my attempts with you on how to remove the rust yourself.

My budget is $100 bucks a month to spend on the car, but that is to bring back the entire car to life, so please don't suggest I save the money for a couple of months/years and take it to a "reputable" shop to have it done. The point is to do it yourself and eventually paint it instead of vinaling it all over again. I do not have an air compressor, so I can't media blast it.

Your feedback and advice is very much appreciated as I have not done this before.
