Hello,
Have you looked at Allied? I have their catalog and you can find almost 
any enclosure you would need their web address is:
http://www.alliedelec.com
Their number is 800-433-5700.  With 65+ pages of enclosures and they 
sell the Extruded Aluminum cases by the piece with end panels. As with 
most electronic sales it is much easier to have the catalog at hand than 
purse the web site.
