    I could really use some of the blind rivets, esp if they are imperial, 3/16 and 1/4 sizes are used heavily on the older cadillac my Father is working on, mind if we work something out Dale where i chip in for shipping?

    If these had come up last month, I'd have brought them over for you, for FREE.

    you're welcome to them if you want them, I'll bring them home on the weekend and take some better pics of the sizes, there are probably more floating around too.

    These were from my uncle's sheet metal factory, he used to make corrugated iron rain water tanks, stock feeders, water carts...

    I've been scrounging around for solid rivets so happy to take them. Question is can we get them near Echuca or Swan hill via the network or sent down to Melbourne? Do you have any sets or headers by any chance?

    There were a couple of Sets, I was planning to hang on to; there is probably more around - will keep have a look.

    I'll be in Adelaide around 2/6 for a wedding, could bring them back to Bendigo if that would help.

    Depending on where in Adelaide they have to be picked from, I'll be staying in Greenwith, also visiting Gawler and Kersbrook.

    Coming through Hancock Rd, Lower NE Rd and St Bernards Rd on the way home.

    Hi Fred,
    Will you be coming past/through Murray Bridge?? I could pick them up from node for you, (if you're coming this way) as I've some boxes to pick up from him soon.
    Regards

    Yes, I normally come through Murray Bridge (well almost - on the freeway).

    They would still have to get from Bendigo to Echuca or Melbourne though.

    Bendigo is closer to Melbourne than Adelaide, it's part way there??? Surely there'd be a member going from Bendigo to Melbourne????
    Will be going down on Thursday, if it helps.
