18 guage sheet metal

If anyone has any scraps I would love to have them. I have the 1948 F250 and am trying to patch it. Needs to be cold rolled.

Thanks

THATS A TOUGH ONE THERE. GUESS YOU WOULD HAVE TO LOOK CLOSER TO A BIG CITY TO FIND SOME. YOU WOULD THINK THE DALLAS MEMBERS WOULD HAVE SOME INSIDE ON THE 18 G MATERIAL

Metal Supermarkets in Dallas or Ft Worth should be able to get it for you, they do a lot of small quantity stuff so you should be able to order just a 6x6" piece or whatever you need.... if it's small enough they might just mail it to you themselves. If not, they have a nationwide website you can order small-quantity from.

sorry to hear tat. he's the only guy i know off the top of my head. maybe if u send plumber01 (robert) a pm, he may know some guys around tat might be able to help u out. i'd still talk to nicmike. he's kinda cool dude. he may even head out to help u out. i dunno. god works in mysterious ways.

but robert might have a better idea than i do. best of luck!
