Just about to kick off my second Suzuki build within 6 months, this time I've gone for a Holden drover hard top and i'm cutting it down into a ute, this build is more about the challenge than anything - one the passenger side rocker panel is in a bad way so I was thinkn i'd purchase some stainless one and fit but WHERE DO I GET EM ??

If my googlefu is correct and by passenger side rocker panel you mean passenger side sill, I don't know that you can just buy replacement panels. Most people elect to re-fabricate them and use either box section, angle, or sheet metal to repair them. Some decide to lift the line slightly higher, others leave it at the stock height and turn it into a full on slider with their reinforcement, others will cut it on an angle (boat siding) which is what I'm currently doing and pics can be found in my build thread however this is a work in progress and you will find other completed versions with a search for either "boat siding" or "sill replacement" e.t.c.
Hopefully I'm on the money and have given you enough information to find what you are looking for, there are companies in the business section who may sell bolt on sliders which will fit in the position I think you are referring to.
Good luck with the search!

Never heard of stainless sill panels for Zooks.
Lots of people use aluminium chequer plate. :gross:

The best fix is to weld in steel to replace the rust.
