Where to get a rocker panel

Hey guys first off id like to say thanks for all the information ive gotten in the past weeks reading all the threads still new to all this. But cutting to the chase i have a 1990 pickup reg cab and about two years ago was in an accident where i was T-boned i have gotten a new door but never replaced the rocker panel. Ive looked all over for a replacement and searched the site a few times but still nothing. I was thinking of cutting one out at a junkyard but heard that wont go in easy. If anyone knows where i could get one it would be great.

Chris

Are you talking about just the outer rocker shell, or the entire panel?

Just make it, that's what I would do. Get some sheetmetal, a baseball bat, a couple pairs of vice-grips and some time. I've made tons of rocker panels for cars before, it's really not that hard.
