Have rebuilt only two Ulsters that were definitely original Longbridge-bodied. Both were held together with 1/8" steel rivets. The few external rivets along the body sides (where joined to the flange on the floorpan) did seem to have larger heads to the rivets, but maybe flattened out more. No problem here if you're fitting running boards, as hidden by them from memory (not at home to look up Notebooks or photos)> Cheers, Bill

Hi Athow, definitely get in touch with Ian Williams. Him and Joss are building replica Ulster bodies for the special builders group now and knowing them both they will get them as close to right as possible. Ian can probably tell you not only the exact sizes of the rivets but exactly how many there are too :)

If you ever pop over the water to Wellington come say hi although I haven't got much progress to show you since last time you saw me in Ak!
