Buck Rivet gun
I have been working on my shell-off rebuild of my '68 Sovereign and am to the point where I will hopefully be reuniting the repaired frame, new floor, grey and black tanks, and axles to the shell within the next 3-4 weeks. I am going to need to do some buck riveting, and have no buck rivet gun. I'm thinking of the kit from Vintage Trailer Supply (they were great suppliers for my tanks), but wonder what others would recommend.... Thanks in advance for any advice,
Mark

Pretty much any 3x gun would be fine. VTS seems like a safe easy route.
