Dope! I think I may have made a big expensive mistake.
Hi, I was just listening to some historical vap podcasts and have become aware that I have used olympics where I should have used buck rivets. I put the shell of my 64 Sovereign back on, using olympics only. I do not mind making a mistake through my own ignorance but luckily the interior skin is still off and I am hoping I can still salvage some sort of integrity by doing the job properly. If it costs me it costs me. If I understand correctly, the perimeter rivet line running around the bottom floor line through to the bottom plate should be held with buck rivets. Does the whole line need to be buck riveted? Is there anywhere else that should be buck riveted?
Regards,
Pete.
