Looking for a sheet metal supplier in the Portland Vanc. area. Plates that might be about 5' x 5' or less in steel and aluminum.

Thanks.

when i was down in portland i grabbed a phone book and looked up steel supply (something like that) and there was quite a few, so we drove around trying to find one but ended up finding a welding supply store and asked who they recommend.. it was only 2-4 blocks away if that helps, kinda outside of portland but not hard to find once you're on the road, it's on corner too

Thanks guys, I will look into those places mentioned. Gives me a start atleast. I want alum. to cover the spare tire area and make plates to cover the holes in the firewall. I have a lift off hood now, no windshield wiper motor + misc holes. Just to dress things up a bit.

John I guess you are not getting my e-mails. I will call you tomorrow when I get off work. I set a huge missile/rocket today in McMinnville/ Evergreen Air Museum. Got picks, send them to you later.

I am getting them but when i hit reply it sends it back to me for some reason all of a sudden? I have sheet metal at work i could shear off for you, but not alumn. But i'm sure i can get it cheaper then you or anyone else can from ort suppliers.I'll look around but also need to know what you would rather have? I know for sure i can shear ya some metal but the alumn will definitly be an order deal. peace
