A couple of Q's

Be prepared for steps 4-6, this is no small undertaking. I would not recommend this procedure on a car that wasn't already in need of paint and bodywork, as you'd be surprised at the hog's mess that is typically hiding under an old vinyl top. Be ready to find rust and other hidden boogers beneath that old vinyl. Vinyl tops are notorious for holding moisture, and rotting out window channels and even entire roof skins in some instances. This is particularly true on cars that sat outdoors or in harsh climates. Good luck on getting rid of that vinyl, be patient, and expect to spend twice what you'd think to do it right, JMO.
