Convertible top rivet tool
How are the heavy steel rivets ((ref ZIP CT-251) used to attach the bow arms to the convertible frame) set? Is this done with a hand tool and buck or a press? Does anyone have a pic of a hand tool? Tx

John, those rivets appear to be a semi-tubular rivet that require a special rivet set that will roll the hollow butt over and outward. Not sure of the size required, but here is a picture of what the set looks like. Different sizes are available so just click and shop around until you find the one you need.
