Decision Made - Alclad Aluminum Panel Replaced Street-Side

Decision made.  The lower scraped scratched street-side panel is also to be replaced.

First the rivets are drilled out, the remaining rivet buck-tails are removed and the panel is removed.

A new panel is cut using the old aluminum as a pattern before the new panel is fit into place with cleco fasteners.

It takes two people to attach the panel with bucked rivets.  Outside one guy inserts the rivet head into each drilled hole and uses a rivet gun to forcefully push the rivet tail to a bucking bar held inside by a second person.  The pressure used expands the rivet tail and secures the panels together.
