you can still buy proper rivets the type were you use a rivet punch and dolly to form them. you just tap in a some of the right size. that is if you were able to remove the old ones.

If these are what you are asking about, I bought some drive screws from the ACMOC a while back. 10 cents a piece. I see that they are listed in the store under Restoration parts but no picture. Pete
