I presume you plan on doing the work yourself, not have it done. That being
the case, I would recommend doing it in fiberglass rather than aluminum.
Talk to a good body man and also get the book "Glass Fiber Auto Body
Construction Simplified" by John A. Wills (last seen for $13.00 +/- from
Amazon). Good luck.
