<div style="line-break:after-white-space">I’m pretty sure they used small roundhead Phillips screws. That’s what is used on early MGBs.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>They didn’t rivet the VIN tag until it became a Federal requirement in January 1969.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>This image shows the type of screw used in 66-67, at least (although I believe this VIN tag is actually a fake, but that’s neither here nor there).</div>
