Small Project Pea Gravel

It seems like most of the answers for the last time someone asked about gravel in Dallas aren't valid anymore (links don't work, "temporarily closed," on Yelp!, etc.). I'm looking for maybe a yard of pea gravel. Where are we getting that kind of thing these days? Web search results range from questionable to damned lies and propaganda, so I'd much rather hear from someone who knows.

Skin tear repair/reinforcement

I have a few tears on the skin in the corners of access panels I need to repair before they get too far (battery and water heater specifically). I was thinking of just riveting on a piece of sheet aluminum around the panel opening, but I'm open to suggestions from anyone that's solved this problem in other ways.

Is fiber roof insulation redundant with Dynaliner?

I've already got the Dynamat pre-cut kit for sound deadening, but it just occurred to me recently that I don't know whether fiber insulation is worth bothering with if I stack Dynaliner for heat insulation on the Dynamat. Is there any good reason to use all three?

I was about to pull the trigger on a package tray for a 66 coupe ( TMI Mustang Package Tray Vinyl With Speaker Holes Coupe 1965-1967 ), but the description isn't quite as detailed as I'd like. When the car was original to me back in the 90s, it already had naked plywood for a back dash. Was that just an aftermarket homebrew? What was originally back there underneath the vinyl? I'm just concerned about it being flimsy or that I'm missing out on whatever kind of reinforcing part might be necessary below it, if there is such a thing.
