I guess i just don't understand about all these rivet exchanges. I've done repairs on my 1958 Silver Streak clipper using a regular hand held rivet setter, then a pair of wire cutters to cut the nail-like piece that is left protruding out from the center of the rivet, and then i use a very file file to further smooth off the rivet head. I would challenge anyone to point out where these rivets are; as they perfectly match all the other rivets, both inside and outside. This process is a little time consuming but i have replaced/repaired rather large sections both side and under panels along with fabricating whole new walls on the inside. I share this for those that are looking for a less expensive way than purchasing a tool with very limited use. best regards, jim
