    Most of the aftermarket sheet metal for early Jeeps comes from the Phillipines, a company named MD Juan, I believe. Not the greatest fit from what I hear, and I think the metal is thinner too.

There is an outfit that is selling STAINLESS STEEL bodys from across the ocean ..I think the web is www.geep.biz... I checked on a M38 tub and WOW aint cheap... There is a guy in NEVADA that bought one he wont return my calls about it ..
