REVETING A MODEL T FRAME

Post by AndreFordT » Wed Nov 20, 2024 6:03 am

Hi all,

I am working on a 1917 frame and need to replace a few rivets in the front of this frame.
I bought already the rivets and tools for them.
I am just looking for the right and easy way to do the job.

Maybe someone out there have more experience with this job and can give me good advice.

Thanks
Andre

It's best to have a helper who can hold the torch to keep the rivet orange until you mash it.
