Ha, Maurice,

I've come to one conclusion...there is no one correct spacing of hood rivits. I've studied numous original cars and supposedly correct diagrams, and have come to the conclusion that you really have to just pick a particular original car, and go with that. I pretty much copied the "10 down the sides, 11 across the front pattern" that I've documented on several original cars. I don't recall the spacing, but I have it written down at home. It didn't match any of the supposedly correct diagrams that I looked at (at least the 3 that are widely available).

Have fun on the drive, wish I could be there.
