More rivets

Can somebody please tell me how many rivets I should order to complete an Indy.

Thanks Gordon





I'm sure I've got one, just don't know where I've put it

it depends what stuff you want to rivet. Personally I think I'm going to stick with just riveting the floor and use adhesive for everything else. I used about 130 rivets for the floor but if you were planning on rivetting everything you could probably quite happily triple that number. Sorry I can't give you an exact number!

Rivet, rivet, rivet...

Minja... we used about 200 large head long shank for the floor + Texflex. We're using approximately 50 more small head, long shank for thick section with limited space and a few small head, short shank for thin section in limited space.

A look at our website may give an idea on quantities cos I'm not counting 'em!

Have fun...

Cheers!
