Hello,
if you have access to a sheet metal bender it is quite easy to make the inner and outer rocker pannels on your own. They are made out of 1mm steel plate from factory.
I had some outers made by a company with a big hydraulic sheer metal bender for dads Sonett III. For my own Sonett II the outers I got from a guy in Sweden who happend to get a bunch of them made when I was looking for them (I am in Germany, so shipping was not a big issue).
The inners I had to replace only part of it so I was able to make them on a 25" bender.
The inners have only 2 bends, a lip up top and one on the bottom where it is welded.
There is a sketch available on a swedish site from a guy who made those on the rebuild for his Sonett II:

--> Scroll down to "22 Februari 2010 Nya plåtar" - there is the sketch for the inner plate.
For the outer, just take measurements and make the plate in the same way.
Kind Regards,
Erik
