Welcome to the Stovebolt, Ron. There is so much info here you will never run out of something to read or check on.
Since this is the Welcome Centre your question would be best answered in the Paint and Body Forum. Not everyone coming into the forums stop in the welcome centre but go straight to their area of expertise and then branch out to the other forums.
.... but since you ask. Most of the panels will be made by the same company or probably no more than two. Its been said over and over that regardless of where they come from they will most likely require some "fitting". Especially when you realize how these trucks were used, repaired and even assembled at the factories back then.
Around here on the East coast I dare say JimCarter and Classic Parts probably gets the bulk of the business but there are others. Then you have the Truck Shop which is in your state of California. I personally have ordered floor pans from them, mainly because of price, and have been satisfied...... I will add that JimCarter does have some panels, or he did just a few short years ago, that are made in the USA. When I visited there I was told the primered looking panels were USA made and the shiny black pieces are all from across the water.
Depending on whether its a burb, panel or pickup there is a guy here who hand makes some panels.
Take a little time to learn your way around here on the bolt. Check out the Links section and the tech tips along with learning how to do a search. There is just so much here.
....and, since you are new you are "moderated" for your first 4 post which is to help keep this site free from spammers and other unwanted guest. After 4 post you will then be able to send PM's (private messages) and enjoy all the benefits of being a Stovebolter. Good luck, we're here to help and don't be shy. Visit often, and post a pic of your truck when you can.
