Re: 72 TA : New Project

Thanks to Norwood, one of the members here and on the PerformanceYears.com website, I have the correct shaker rivets.

My bodyman was very familiar with these types of rivets since he does a lot of Corvette work and they use a similar rivet, so he got the honor of installing them.

The shaker is then set on top of the rivet and mandrel and the upper mandrel is gently tapped.
