Re: [VAL] Hoo, boy! RE: 1956 Caravanner Skin Care



Tom and Andy,

What do you think of "closed end" rivets? I know that they don't look like
bucked rivets, but the rivet suppliers say they are stronger than "pop"
rivets and because the end is closed they are water proof. I've used them in
a few places on the exterior where the bucked rivet was never used (around
the water heater for instance) and so far they seem to be holding up well.
