So it turns out the previous owner of my '57 truck put on a '55 or '56 front clip. when I bought it, I thought just the grille had been swapped. Turns out the only parts thst transfers over are the inner fenders. Can someone recommend someone who sells OEM quality sheet metal? I assume most of the sheet metal comes from a couple of sources. Who have people used that has quality sheet metal? I want to avoid the overseas thin cheap sheet metal. I'd hate to close the hood and end up with a crease in the hood.
