I noted it is screwed on. Is this correct? When did Chevrolet start using rivets?
Thanks John

Yes. Actually, in June '48, there was a service change as to where the screws were placed. screws Don't know about the rivets.

Yep, those screws on the earlier models are the lovely 'clutch headed' screws. ![[Linked Image from img51.imageshack.us]](http://img51.imageshack.us/img51/8932/gwkl.jpg) I guess they're still easier to mess with than rivets.
