Anyone know anything about body work? 850

There's really no way to replace the roof. Even if you did weld on a new roof, you might not be protected in a rollover as you once were. It could also cause a lot more problems down the road. The roof is a critical component of the car's unibody, and it actually absorbs flex, etc, during normal driving. Your insurance company should know better than to recommend you weld on a "new" roof. Just have them total the car and get something else. Might be hard to let go of your current car, but it's your only realistic option now.
