Did a rivet count tonight. There is 17 on the c8 chassis and 52 on the c60l chassis
Also did a few experimental ones and stuffed up a few  Once set up with half a clue it Took about 8 hours to do 40 by myself Reasonably happy with how they came out Definately keep the number of the rivet guy Tony posted if any more come up

G'day Andrew see you've been busy lately.
I'm in the process of getting a F15 chassis ready to put a cab 12 on it. I think I have all the parts I need from the chev cab 12 so if you are down this way we'll meet up sometime to see what bits you need. Max

rivets
Would be great if you could run a half day workshop and charge a fee ... a few of us would be interested ... but distance is against us.
Again, well done on your innovative restoring skills. Mike

I am definately no expert on the matter
Just a bit of trial and error Wouldn't be worried about a fee I would be glad to show anyone how i did it (right or wrong way) Just let me know ,grab some rivets ,put your bits and oxy set in a trailer and come on up Be glad to have a working bee in the shed and a bit of a bbq and maybe a few drinks as well restoration is always better with a bit of company  Max -Sounds like a good project -Is it one to keep Howards company ?

Andrew,
Excellent work on the rivits...I just checked Youtube, but I haven't been able to find your DIY rivit video's yet  Both chassis' look great with a little paint on them. It's hard to judge the colours in the pictures, but I think the green looks pretty good, although maybe a little too light. I mixed and painted some colour samples according to Mike Starmers receipe a week or two ago and the green comes pretty close to yours, although a bit darker if I remember correctly. Alex
