style of rivit on hinge piller weather strip

[Daniel J.]

My painter removed the rivit on the hinge piller weatherstrip and I am getting conflicting information for what style they should be now thay I am putting it back together.

Car is a '63 coupe. (I think it is the same for all mid years except for '66).

This is the small W/S at lower part of the body hinge piller with (2) black screws & (1) black rivit.

Is it a plastic push rivit or black aluminum rivit or standard pin rivit?

Appreciate any help, Dan

Daniel,

I need to get the correct rivet for my 63 coupe also, but I believe it's a black pop rivet, see what others say..

Look at the Long Island Corvette Catalog. They are in there. Section 42.

Stephan:

I saw the description on LIC, but did not see a picture so I was unsure what I would be getting. (CC shows a normal pop rivit).

Thanks, Dan

Daniel,

I've had 63 coupes in the 8000, 10,000, 14,000 and 19,000 SN range. All of those had regular aluminum rivets from the factory.
