Good morning. I need to fabricate some replacement metal before where one of the cars had an air-conditioning system in the front trunk. Does anyone know what gauge metal that is off the top of their head so I can get the right stuff from the metal supply shop?
Thanks! |

I believe its been said to be 19ga. You wont find that at the local supply store. 18ga is the closest.
That is a complicated piece so a donor piece would be the best. |
