Qiuck Question ----- What guage sheetmetal is a teener or perhaps more to the point, what guage to repair her?? I get to put my fab skills to the test (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) and learn to run my new MIG (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) .. Fortunatly for me and the car I'm not a total novice-- just used to thicker stuff--- like steel boats. There's enough left I can make some patterns Thanks for the info. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Maybe one day I'll get to (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) this thing again!!! Yea right . The deeper I dig the more rot I find!!! More questions deeper in the thread. Thanks guys.

I have been using 16ga for all structural repairs. From what I could tell most of the structural panels sold are in the 16ga range. Also I asked on the board a while ago and the general opinion was to 16ga. The non structural can be a little thinner
