1965 Question regarding front end fiberglass

[Stephen B.]

These are pictures of the front end brace for the radiator. Are these the correct rivets for the brace? I did not think that these cars had pop rivets. Thanks

Stephen,

No, those are just Pop Rivets and the originals were solid aluminum rivets with the large head on the fiberglass side and peened on the bracket side inside the wheel well.

Thank you. I thought that was the case. Where can I get some of the rivet?

Corvette suppliers like Long Island Corvette Supply, Paragon, Corvette America and many others sell the rivets.
