Sorry, I should have mentioned that!

The Kirkham bodies used by Shelby today are thicker than the original and are noted for being much more "dent resistant". Bear in mind Kirkham was/is not the only supplier of bodies to Shelby, all though by far the largest.

As to the "other" body manufacturers supply to Shelby I would ASSUME they to are using thicker metal than original. Kinda like in the days of the original and still true today, not all Shelbys are created equal!
