Ford Rivets

Not sure if this is any use but thought you guys might know what size rivets they do and if they are suitable for a jeep.

They have some tooling that might transfer across as well, but I'm unsure yet - any ideas?

I don't see the Ford cone head shape; all rivets I see now are round headed. Have to lathe turn the proper head shape on.
