Take a look at this nasty section of frame, I don't believe I would want to be driving it like that.
Great Progress.
I would like to make a Suggestion on the rivet removal.
People have different ways of doing this.
1st step: If you make a center punch .
Then drill a pilot hole.
Maybe 1/4 inch hole.
See how close you are too the center
So on and so forth.
Lots of options
Drill next size up.
Then use a Air - Hammer With a thin shim between the chisel and the frame.
