Re: My 51 GMC 100 Build...

Well guys, Here is a simple question. But what is the easyest way to remove the rivits that hold the cross members and running boards and what not off. I have been useing a drill but that tends to go thru my bits really fast and takes forever haha. Any suggestions?

On mine I ground the heads off with an angle grinder and then just punched them out.
