[Shop-talk] Patch panels

[Karl Vacek]

I need to do some minimally-expensive rust repair on our 1993 GMC Suburban -
probably replace the front fenders and weld in patch panels around the rear
wheel openings.

 

A Google search finds many suppliers of aftermarket sheet metal, but there's
little to differentiate them till I actually order and find out what the
quality is like.  Shipping on these big items makes that a pretty expensive
proposition.

 

Anyone know of a reliable supplier, or better brands of sheet metal for that
vintage of GM trucks?

 

Thanks!
Karl
