Hey great find.

Its a cool site with some great info and pics/ideas.

Hmm WEST Japanese March club! For all the Hiroshima guys etc. Looks like they are meeting in September. They are a whole different bunch to the Tokyo/East coast guys I hung out with.

Wouldn't mind trying to hook up with these guys next year in March when I go back.

Haha check this article out!

This guy went crazy with a rivet gun!

I think he just did it for looks.

Bahaha yeh using rivets to stiffen things up is pretty silly because the soft metal rivets are typically made from just strech and allow now weakened pressings to seperate!!!

TO get the full effect of that i think he'd have to be using some aircraft grade rivets.

Really good till/if the time ever comes and he wants to do body repairs.

Actually aircraft rivets are aluminium as you cannot use steel 'cos it causes corrosion.
There was a type called a 'monel' but I cannot recall it's specifications anymore.
