Hi Jordan
I’m all for originality but does the structural integrity not concern you when reusing 70 year old fasteners? I can see using them in areas where there is little stress or minimal force but I would never use them on any area requiring them to perform to engineered specifications. Even leaf springs can be questionable, as spring steel grows weak and brittle, especially once it is pitted. Ask me how I know… Thoughts?
