[Spridgets] Metal thickness??

[Kevin Valentine]

Ryan,

I use 18 ga in the floors and rockers, and 20 ga for the balance of the
car.  You want to match the steel you are welding into the car with the
steel that you are welding it into.

If you have old/used fenders or other body parts you are discarding, you
can cut metal out of them to patch the areas you need to patch.

How much steel do you need?
