That's my first choice of metal - nice malleable steel with an excellent surface anti-rust treatment. Depending on the amount of shaping you need, you may save some of that treatment. I suspect it may be heavier than some parts of the body, but I will bow to Russ on that one, and anyway rust-prone areas need at least the same thickness as before. Dave.
