bronco-body-work-2009-010.jpg Here you see I have added a piece of metal to corner the hole and also attaches to the rocker panel. Everything is in place and the structural epoxy is applied to the overlapping surfaces. The floorboard overlap riveting is completed and the rocker overlap is temporarily clamped in position. You can drill the rivet holes now or have done it previously. I chose to do it before the final attachment . The reason for that is that drilling leaves burs on the back side that interferes with the rivets. So I pre-drill and clean off the burs.
