Are you looking to make replacement rocker panels based off new OEM ones?

Galvanized sheet metal is a bit rough, considering it will have to be ground/welded, and I like my lungs cancer-free.

He might have meant galvannealed, which is a lot easier to weld and paint and used extensively in automotive applications.
