<div dir="ltr">Yes, I think I was able to find the correct rivets for both early cars (a drive rivet, not a "pop" rivet) and late cars (a closed-end rivet). If not exact, they're *very* close. I probably have many dozens of them -- certainly several lifetime's supply -- because I had to order a bunch to get a few.<div><br></div><div>Here's are details front and back of the early drive rivet.</div><div><a href="https://photos.smugmug.com/photos/i-KX88bMw/0/a2ee6789/O/i-KX88bMw.jpg">https://photos.smugmug.com/photos/i-KX88bMw/0/a2ee6789/O/i-KX88bMw.jpg</a><br><div><a href="https://photos.smugmug.com/photos/i-LdxQ2BM/0/c84b7900/O/i-LdxQ2BM.jpg">https://photos.smugmug.com/photos/i-LdxQ2BM/0/c84b7900/O/i-LdxQ2BM.jpg</a><br></div><div><br></div><div>Send me a note off-list, Brian, and we'll see what we can do.</div><div><br></div><div>BR,</div><div><br></div><div>Don</div><div>Saint Louis Missouri</div><div>1962 TR3B TSF202L</div><div><br></div></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Sat, Jun 20, 2020 at 10:35 AM Brian Thomas <<a href="mailto:thomasb@queensu.ca">thomasb@queensu.ca</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">Hi,<br>
<br>
I'm looking to replicate the 4 rivets used to mount the commission plate on my TR2. <br>
<br>
Pop rivets I am familiar with have a hollow center when the rivet is installed. The ones used to hold the plate leaves a metal cap in this opening. <br>
<br>
Has anyone had success finding this type of rivet? <br>
<br>
FYI, Rimmers shows "713531 - Pop Rivet - Closed End Type - 1/8 inch x 1/4 inch" for this application and TRF subs 554407 for this. As 554407 is also used to hold down the chrome capping on the top of a TR4A windshield (which I have), I had a look and the rivets used there are also hollow ...<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
<br>
Brian<br>
