I got the sheet from the hobby shop, I believe it was Plastruct gray ABS .030 sheet. Only the middle section is sheet, the front and back is the stock kit sleeper. Here's an early in progress pic of it.

I also built a frame inside the roof to try to keep the arched shape of the original roof, but it still took a lot of Bondo and sanding to get it just right.

I also built a simple frame from Evergreen tubing that is hidden inside to add some strength to everything.

If you have a decent hobby shop nearby, you should find the Evergreen plastic, both tubing and sheet, with no problem.
