[Thundacat]

Seems like im only on here to get help with all the posts ive been doing! but i need somewhere that i could go and look for rivets for my window track, autozone, advanced auto, lowes, homedepot, and ace hardwear all dont have the right size. Anyone know of a place that is open tomorrow that i could get some or maybe one of you guys have some layin around that i could buy off of you!??? :confused:

i get them from carquest. they are 1/4 inch. do you have the right rivet gun?

[Thundacat]

no i dont have a rivet gun! they have one at the hobby shop that im doing the work at but not sure if its the right one?

[grn95t/a]

the normal hand held one is to small to pull the 1/4 inch rivets
