I am restoring my 1960 BT7 3000 MkI soft top frame. One of the rivets on the frame is broken. It appears to be a 3/4" diameter head (looks like a carriage bolt head), 5/16" diameter shaft and 3/4" length. Anyone know where to find one of these creatures?

I have the same situation on my frame. I will be looking into making a repair and if you have not found away to fix yours by then I will gladly share whatever I come up with.

Thanks, John. I don't know why I didn't look there! I must be one of their best customers and I didn't even thinking about checking with them.
