Re: wood and patch panels
Wood Kit; (n) a collection of similar items, crudely hewn from trees, meant to be a starting point for Ford Model 'A' hobbyist to test their vocabulary and patience during assemblage!
IMO, Classic Wood in Greensboro, NC (also distributed by Brattons & Snyders) offers the best "Wood Kits" for your bodystyle.
The commercially available sheetmetal patch panels are not "plug & play". I guess it depends on the level of quality you are desiring. To some, the quality of these commercially available patch panels is satisfactory. To others, the incorrect shape of most panels is unacceptable so they fabricate their own. I fall into the latter category and thus we have "tooled-up" to make our own panels. To properly replicate panels to exacting details is very time consuming, ...and thus expensive. I do not know what your capabilities are, or what your expectations are. THAT will probably be your guide.
