There are certain odd rivets on the C2 that seem difficult to find.
Unlike the common large Flat head rivet there are some just like it but with a smaller diameter heads - 3828549. You see these in many places but there are a lot on the doors.
There are those that hold the wiper brackets, fuse box bracket and the shifter boot bracket, which have a domed head - 455624.
Then there is a tubular flat top rivet with a counter sunk shape - 3828707, You see these where the door striker body pillar mets the drip rail extention.
Anyway, my question is, where can you find all these odd rivets?
I tried the usual cast; Zip, CC, Volvette, Ecklers.
DrRebuild at least mentioned them, but seems to want to use larger flat head rivets for all.

Try Long Island Corvette Supply. I don't have my catalog handy, but I bet they have them.
 
Try Paragon Reproductions. I put the keyword rivets in the quick search box on the home page and when that opened I further refined my search by clicking on 1963 and rivets. I got 62 items for rivets and related items. I'll bet that the ones you seek are there.
