11/32 rivets?

(1/3) > >>

sixball:
 I'm working on the '26 roadster frame and I'm ready to put the front crossmember back in. I want to use rivets and measuring the holes it looks like they are 11/32". I have looked on the internet and can not find any. Does any one here if I'm looking for the right size and where I can get them. I could re-drill all the holes and go to 3/8" but I'd rather not do that.  A 11/32" drill goes in the holes but a 23/64" won't.

Sixball I did some searching, ran on to "67-72 Chevy truck site. They were discussing 11/32" frame rivets, say rare. A guy popped on and said "rivetsinstock.com" (JC (Jay Cee)) probably had them. I found the site, phone # 248-478-2150. Found under "small solid round head rivets under 7/16".  Might be worth a call or visit site, sure beat drilling all to 3/8" if they have them availible😁
Hope this link works for you,

Thanks Sammons, I found the JC site and they do list 11/32 solid steel round heads but when I click to shop on line they are not listed. I'll try calling them Monday. If I could find 9mm it wouldn't be hard at all to drill them. They may be easier to find. (0.34375 to 0.354331) On the crossmember there are 10 holes and I have to drill 8 of them in the frame anyway.

Metric rivets on a 26 Chevy  :o

Purist, I shouldn't have mentioned it.  ::)  I found this great how to today. I'll probably go 3/8" just a 32nd bigger and plentiful.
