The roof was crushed in a bit and the rest of the cab is dinged up to but the chassis and motor are fine. Is it worth trying to rebuild or just better off scrapping it and starting over?
 
I would just scrap it for safety reasons. I've heard stories of people buying cars that have been rolled and then they get into an accident and the roof collapses. There is no way to completley repair a car after an accident like that.
 
The roof is part of the frame structure and needs to be sound. If the roof pillars are all straight, you may be able to push out the dents from the inside...it will look like crap, but you'll still be able to drive it.
