Is it me but isn't 100$ as a starting bid for 2 rivets insane? Were they at the last supper or did they come down from the mountain with Moses and the 10 commandments. The only reason I am swapping vin # is I am replacing the old crumbling original dash with a nice used one. I think I will use one listers idea and grind off the bottom of the rivet and epoxy the tag rivet heads and all to the new dash. 100$ for 2 rivets is insane and that is not the Rambler mentality speaking either!!!
