In the material editor, edit the material - change it from image to wood.  You will still have the siding but now you will be able to change the two wood colors to create the graining and colors you want.

Try-

Duplicate the material youre trying to edit then...

Under Render appearance there is a section "render appearance based on..."  Click "replace"  then scroll to default and select "generic"

Under "color" select the arrow to the right of the swatch, select "edit color" then "define custom color" 

       Create the color you want

Scroll down and check the box in front of "bump"  then load the texture used for the corrugated metal.  Adjust the amount of bump until the desired amount is achieved.

I've attached a jpg of a material I built like this.

Hope this helps
