Thanks Burton !

 

I figured that with the inches part. But what is gage ?, relations to inches ? where is that scale ?

Divide by 25.4 to get inches.

 

2 mm is .079 inches (near 13 gage).

 

1 mm is .039 inches. (near 20 gage)

Merry Imperial Christmas to you all !

 

I'm a swede who's doing some metalwork on old cars since 2002. I have looked all over for patches to imperials but there are no. There is a few shops that make rockers for 2-door cars but that's it. My question is how do you convert the american way of measuring  sheet thickness to metric system. The rockers on 57 to 63 imperials are 2 millimeters and the rest of the body is made of 1 mm thick sheets. How do you convert?
