Welcome to our site. You might find quite a bit of rust underneath, perhaps some pretty bad stuff, but more the reason to reveal it now are correct it. If you remove the vinyl top and reveal underlying rust then it would be like any other body repair. If you re-paint it you would have to grind down the studs that the stainless trim mounts to and fill any holes left by damage or corrosion. You might also just remove the back and front glass and repair any corrosion in the channels surrounding the glass while you are at it. Often the lower corners on the back glass channels corrode all the way through and leak.
