d a sheet steel which meets the following requirements;
Must resist petrol exposure.
Must resist weather exposure (ie. water).
Must be weldable with MIG.
|
stainless steel (but not the aluminised tin they use in exhausts)
any galvanic coating will burn off when you weld it so unless you grind clean and re-galv, galvanised mild steel isn't what you're after.
you could go for an exotic alloy - somthing with titanium or aircraft alloy - but you probably need TIG and the former woul need a plasma cutter.
you could look at alloys if you were able to bolt up or rivet the joins rather than weld.
