    So I was at the news stand earlier today and was looking at the new Octane-Magazine and on pages 108-112 is a story on a sweet little car. It's the riveted bare aluminum Alec Issigonis, Lightweight Special.

    This car is so cool and all I can think about now is what parts of my new modified build am I going to rivet together.

    Please post pictures of rivets on yours or someones ride, I need a rivet fix!
     
  2. My floorboards are riveted together with like a million rivets, does that count?

    Kind of hard to see...
    I used countersunk rivets on this hood.
    On the inside of the hood they have the regular rivet head.
