Hi mate,

Yes, were are a clever bunch. When i told the bloke at Pope in sydney, he said they were likely cracked, but i had never forgotten they were there!

The holder looks good! Well done there.

If you did want rivets, there is a guy here sin Sydney has ALOT. Mainly for vintage car hood irons, check here, his name is Richard. http://www.hotfrog.com.au/Companies/...ian-Hood-Irons

Shame about the battery place. Good luck on the hunt in Victoria. I'd also suggest trying Pope batteries here in Sydney as they did do the rubber case style, but as I said above, I'm not sure if they can still do new batterie- I'm sure they have tried to get more cases as that was one of their main draw cards!

Cheers,
Ian.
