Well, I found my aluminum after much searching. http://www.ism-interstatesteel.com/
I wanted to use stainless, but that stuff is $600 a sheet!

I called ISM and asked if they have drops as suggested above in this thread. They told me to just come down and you can look through them. That was music to my ears!!!
When I arrived, the nice lady at the front desk said, just go back to the warehouse and ask for Eli. I found what I needed. I found a piece of 14 gauge of 5052 10' x 12" for $30. I wanted slightly thicker, but this will work with a little more bracing. That is a bargain!
Eli told me to come back and talk to him if I needed anything else. Places like ISM are those little gems you like to find if you like to fabricate or work on stuff yourself.

Thanks for the help tracking down the aluminum.
For those who don't make it over to the Gearhead forum, here's the finished product:
