Hiya, may sound like a stupid question, but where do people buy sheet metal / box section from? I am not so bothered about sheet metal, but I want to get hold of some box section so i can brace the mini up ready to start hacking out the old sills...

If possible i would like ot get it tomorrow, so if anyone knows of anywhere in the Norwich area, that would be great, if not, online suppliers?

Cheers!

Steve

I went around the local metal stockists and asked around, wave some beer tokens and they knock the price down even more
