48 Tall Leg Spot lamps

[jgbrown59]

Looking for guidance on restoring a pair of tall leg spot lamps with the focus screw. They are for a late 48FL. The shells and legs are in great shape but both need to be refinished - body chromed and legs CAD plated. The challenge is re-riveting the legs to the shells.

Does anyone know of a source for the appropriate rivets? Any guidance / recommendation / cautions on attempting this?

Colony has a Spotlight rebuild kit. I contains small bolts that duplicate the head of the rivets. Also includes all the mounting hardware, focus spring and screw and wire assembly. Colony part number 2568-24. Kit is for one spotlight.

I made my own rivets 25 years ago. Time consuming but it worked well. Jerry
