Top Hat Section

Can anybody recomend a commercial source of pre-folded top hat section suitable for use under CJ body tubs.
I had a thought that Mk1/2 Escort channels have been sugested before
, but considering the stupid money these cars now make
Repair panel prices may reflect these high values
Something intended for a more mundane vehicle may be a lot cheaper
Any ideas?

And, of course, they're waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay cheaper than a rusty old shitbox Escort
Escort bits aren't expensive, there's a tophat section under the bootfloor on a current shape Honda Civic, goes across the floor and is about 2ft long.
To you sir? £215.00 + vat. Oh yeah, that's trade, with discounts...

Isnt there a press brake where you work Ferret? either that or find a machine shop that has one, i had some made up for my cj6 by a fabrication firm i do work for and they did it for nothing so it cant be that hard to do
