There is one nut per strip - at the front of the front and door strips and
the rear of the rear strips. The front ones may well be corroded and it is
often difficult to get anything other than an open-ended spanner on them.
Lay in a fitting kit as the fastenings that pop-rivet to the panels will
almost certainly be rusty, and the panel rust almost certainly stems from
them so they will have to be removed anyway to treat it properly. When you
put them back dip them in Waxoyl underbody seal first, and even with a
'long-nose' pop-rivetting tool you may have to slip a small nut over the end
of the rivet pin if the nose of the tool won't fit into the cup washer.
