Needed: scrap sheet metal

I need some sheet metal scrap to close some 'holes' and fab an instrument panel in my track car...the major piece needs to be a min of ~24"*36". Pretty much any thin steel or aluminum would do-if you have some, I'll make it work.

Any one have some scrap laying around? For such a piddling amount I dont really want to pay a metal vendor serious $$$$ for a 'new' sheet.

I pay in thanks, "wrench" labor, N.A.S.A. goodies, beer, or a Jackson or so, depending on your preferences


Thanks!

Sheet metal

Hey Eric, We have a couple of old hoods that are fairly flat that you could cut some pieces out of. Come and get it. TTYL, Greg

Hey Hoss, I am looking at building an aluminum air cleaner assm to seal to the bottom of my hood. I am trying to capture only cold air from the hood scoop on my Dakota. Can you get aluminum that is fairly thick (1/16th) but still bends easily? I can get aluminum sheets from our trailer shop but it breaks when you bend it too far.
