Re: Rivets It was considered that I was not professional hanging out the person doing the job. Maybe a bit over sensitive I think.
Debate please

Re: Rivets i thought it was a good idea about the rivets
they are those big stainless ones by the looks-
some of the crap mig welding is much inferior
also all that needs to be done when the panel rusts is drill out the rivits for replacement

Debate please Which do you think was worse? Posting the pics, or pop-riveting structural panels together? Was it any different to various other pros posting pics of some of the bodges they've encountered? Should they have removed them, too? HOPEFULLY, he's really embarrassed since he realises just what a hideous bodge he's done, and is now doing it properly. You're right, Ayjay, that pigeon crap won't give it any strength, either - but I'm not sure that's a recommendation for this... Just think what'll happen if ever the car gets hit. pingpingpingpingpingpingpingpingpingpingpingpingpingpingpingpingpingpingpingpingsquelch.
