10 ga. steel works quite well for boxing in frame rails. Always buy mine from a steel supply house in Sioux Falls. They do a lot of cutting for various projects, and usually have a pile of 10 ga. cutoffs about 8" to 10" in width and lengths of 4' to 5'. Becuase they're cutoffs from a shop work order, I can by them at a huge discout compared to the price of a full sheet, usually about half price.....Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, Live for Today!

Dave do you cut these down narrower or bend them? I'm just new to metal work. Flat sheets or tubing? Angle iron? Help!

Ditto on the model kits! My best were lost when the Hobby Shop burned under suspicious circumstances....
How did you get hooked on cars?
