I bought some C channel styrene for a future '30s hot rod project and it's 3/16 or .188 which scales out to 4.7 inches in scale. You would probably want something in the 5/16 range which would scale out to 7.9 inches. 3/8 would be 9.5 inches. For patches, I use .040 thick styrene which is close to the same thickness as most kit bodies.
