This is perhaps a step too far but closer to what I would like to see in a riveted construction. And as for " your fancy modern pop rivets" , these were invented before the Austin 7 was even thought of...
When were pop rivets invented?
The pop rivet was invented in Scotland shortly before World War I. In the United States, inventors such as Carl Cherry and Lou Huck experimented with other techniques for expanding solid rivets, such as the pull-through method.1 Jun 2001
