A/C won't do shit if you don't insulate.

You can just put in insulate and throw pegboard over it or something, or no drywall at all if you secure it with wire. That would be a good idea for the roof. Instaling drywall on the ceiling isn't fun.

You need some air circulation too, to get a "wind chill" effect, assuming the air is colder than your skin temp (~93F).

You may find with insulation, there's such a thermal delay in the inside vs outside temps that you don't even need A/C.

I agree with the drywall on the ceiling-a lot of weight I used 1" foam sheet (silver on one side blue on the other) on the ceiling silver side out and taped the joints.
When I made my reference earlier about the temp in my garage I neglected to say it was 97 degrees out and this was after the garage is hit by the sun 90% of the day basically proving your thermal delay ! Was cheap to heat as well. As for the cost of insulating and drywall. Like any good project I am afraid to add up the total cost of materials
