I’m getting ready to re-install the capping on the tub (1974 series 3 88) what size river should I use? Looks like a 3/16? How about length?

The originals are 3/16" and the length depends on the thickness at each point of the work piece. You can buy the rivets here. http://www.bigflatsrivet.com They are not great communicators but the price is good and they have info on the site for doing the riveting. I bought the bucking bar on their site, too, since it is the right shape for the rivets.
