[SEL] Riveting

Paul:

  Unless the thing has rusted out holes in it, why mess with an original 
muffler?  At best, paint it.

Guys I want to put a new shell on my muffler for my Stover and I want do my 
best to maintain originality. Look at this picture of my muffler, I 
sandblasted just the area where the rivets are so you could see them 
clearly. I do not want to use pop rivets so what is the best method to use 
to replicate these rivets. What kind of tools will I have to have to do the 
job or maybe it would be best to send the shell to someone who could make a 
new shell with the rivets. Just let me know what is the best method.
