Getting ready to start cutting out rust and making patches! Those of you that have done this yourselves, what are the metal thicknesses on the longs? Are the inners and outers the same thickness? Also, are the "doubled areas" the same? Wish me luck bringing this one back!

19

You cannot buy that, so 18 or 20
Thicker for the longs.

I have a donor car the the longs are bad on, but there are other places on the car where the sheet metal is in good shape. Is the whole car 19 gauge ?

Thanks
