Not sure if you wanna go this route but for our 32 ford/ mud truck we used some old refrigerators that were laying around. Worked great for what we needed!

Re: where to get sheet metal

if you are lookin for just some scrap sheets to "play" around with or even do some patch work, check with your local body shops for scraps. most of the time they will give you whatever you want old hoods/doors work great for filler/patch panels
