That's a tough one, I would say you will have to get a new roof. Without seeing it, I would think the metal would be too thin to weld.

The only fix is to replace the car. If the rust is that bad, it's spread like cancer.

That's a little hard to tell from your original post. Four (count 'em, FOUR) exclamation points after "roof splitting" in the title would give one the impression that this was a problem...

I fix split and rusted steel roofs by tearing them off and then applying plywood sheathing or new steel decking followed with shingles or the proper flat roofing system.

Split roof?

My guess would be a vinyl top with rust underneath.
