Sources of aluminum

I feel like this topic must have been touched on a ton of times but I was having some trouble locating threads. What are some recommended companies that sell aluminum appropriate for a teardrop roof?

I had good luck with these folks.

There is a price break at 100#. Cheaper to buy 5 sheets of 5X10 .040 than four!!!!!

Cheers,

Gus

Prices have gone up, at all the places listed. Just a reminder.

Roadparts has many locations around the country... one option is to get a roll for a semi roof. 0.04 by (I think) 103" by 30 to 50 feet. No seams = good.
