I found this site today. They have what I need, but after totaling it up ($490.00 - shipping), I decided I'll have to make my own stuff. You may find something you need here. Anyone ever heard of them? Reputation?

Where's a good place to buy sheetmetal 16-18 guage, in flat sheets? The automotive paint store is the only place around here (Michigan), and their markup is killer. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif

I've been using a place called Metal Supermarket in Livonia. They specialize in smaller orders and can usually get you anything you need. The mark up is reasonable and there's no minimum order.

I think there is another one in Troy as well.

They've been around forever, the parts are pretty good and heavy guage.
