For my birthday, I was given some money by Sharon's grandfather. He is 94 years old and still going strong! He was a missionary in Africa and while he was there he had to build things, do mechanics, etc, just to survive. When he came back to the states he worked as a pastor and for fun liked to do woodworking. He enjoys seeing the things I do with metal and thought that I'd get a rivnut tool with his gift, as I've always kinda wanted one but never bought one.
So, this showed up in the mail. It was pretty reasonable and I ordered it with steel inserts instead of aluminum ones. I just like steel better. Neither of the doors had mirrors on them, so I measured and drilled some holes and in the pass. side and fixed the original filled holes in the driver's side. Broke the rivnut tool out and went to town. After that, the new Tom's Bronco black chrome mirros were fitted just for giggles.
Thank you grandpa S!
