I have used the small red rivet tool sold by most model A parts suppliers. I think it is about $20 to $25. It works well. You clamp it in vise and use the part with the BB like end to peen over the rivets which are brass and don't take much force to set. A little oil helps make a nice rolled over end.

what is bbt?

Means "bump to the top." Well, BTT. To bring the question back into top billing in hopes that someone will give an answer. (or a different answer.)

I thought bbt stands for Big brown truck. When I order parts and wait for them to come via UPS. It's called waiting for the BBT.
