try calling Keen parts. They have a bunch of rivets so they may know of the correct ones if yours arent actually the originals or maybe able to get you in the right direction to find them. Good luck

Email your photo to J & D Corvettes. They manufacture replacement body parts, including the front clip. I'd expect they would know where to get them or a good replacement, If things work out right, I'll have J & D replace my 70 front clip so they'll need some of those rivets.
