I'm restoring a horse trailer and the roof panels have as many holes as swiss cheese does. Does anyone know any companies that sell roof panels or is it just sheet metal that is rolled on the sides.

Thanks for the help

p.s. I'm new to horse trailers so if my lingo is off please let me know

It's rolled sheet metal. These folks carry all the other pieces and parts that you may need...  http://www.redneck-trailer.com/2009/H/H6-H9.pdf

A local fabricator may be able to save you shipping costs by making a panel in house. Depending on the number of holes and their sizes, they may be able to be welded closed and ground smooth before painting. Another alternative, again depending on the size of the holes, is to apply an elastromeric coating. Larger holes can be reinforced with the optional reinforcing fabric.
