More progress today, some of the factory hardware for the inner fender and inner fender extensions used sheet metal screws and clips that had been spot welded on. We plan on using machine screws, so the clips were drilled out for 1/4-20 rivet nuts.





Kyle used the BF Goodrich installing tool. First the rivet nut is threaded onto the tool for full thread engagement..





Next, the allen wrench is held stationary, and is also held to stabilize the tool perpendicular to the work piece. The ratchet wrench adds the rotational movement where the "jack screw" draws up the rivet nut, similar to installing a pop rivet..





While he was doing that, I used some transfer punches to add the holes to the recently repaired inner fenders for the grille hardware...














Then we knocked off early and made a speed run to Annapolis for Jalopyrama. Here are some of the sights:
