Has anyone had to replace the rivets that attatch the hinges to the hood panels on the 41-46 art deco trucks?
They also attatch the inner aprons to the fenders. my quesion is are these available, if not what's the best alternative?

I replaced the rivets on my rear fenders and bought them through McMaster Carr. Had to purchase 100 of them

I used 10-24 stove bolts 3/8" long for both the hood hinge and the inner fenders.
