C2 67 Coupe Weatherstrip

[Stephen L.]

Help!
The Aim shows a rivet holding the Coupe Hinge pillar weatherstrip (its about 6" long) to the door opening metal rain channel. Is this a "conventional" rivet that needs to be "mushroomed" or is it a "pop" rivet?

Steve -

It's a 3/16" aluminum pop-rivet.

Re: C2 67 Coupe Weatherstrip

Thanks John! BTW, still trying to resolve the hood stripe dimension issue I posted last week. Turns out on my 67 that a measurement of 50" from the firewall surface lands at a point only 3.5 inches from the hood opening edge of the front valance...about 3 inches short of a typical stripe location. Also the vertical portion of the fender openings that fall on the 10" grid line are 13 inches from the firewall. Did this using a string across the fenders and a plumb bob to locate the 10" point in the engine bay area... the body is off the frame. I've contacted a person who has a pristine 67 BB to get a measurement from his stripe as well as verify the other stripe dimensions shown in the AIM.
