Have you been there and done this? If so, please share photos!! I've thought of it, (probably lots of people have also thought of it) but I haven't tried it.

In an initial application for a PRR late 50's car side that needed a bolster row of wide-spaced rivets, I was so happy I ordered more so I can do any number of cars I need them for (esp classes X46 thru X55). They are just the trick! Elden Gatwood -----Original Message-----
