I got a free camper about like that about 45 yrs ago that had been rolled. The front wasn't too bad but the back half was pretty smashed. I took it all apart, and re-bent the middle and back roof bows to match the front one, then screwed it all back together with a bunch of corner braces and put new metal on the top. As I recall I replaced the back "glass" with plexiglass. The side windows had somehow survived.
I used it for a year or two and then sold it for $100 I think. But of course that was a lot more money back then. I turned around and bought a brand new taller one that was insulated and had a back door for $400-something.
A new cab high fiberglass topper is about $2500 right now
