Looks like the one's used on the old chebbies, Snap-on has a bit to fit it. Maybe Craftsman, too...?Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, Live for Today!

Yep, you are correct....it's on a 51 chevy. Couldn't find a Craftsman bit to fit it. Snap On probably have one, but at this point I have no access to the Snap On man. I was wondering what it was called so I might be able to find tools on-line.Our race team page

Mobile home manufacturers used this type screw to attach the aluminum outer panels to the framework.PLANET EARTH, INSANE ASYLUM FOR THE UNIVERSE.

For the record, I believe that's called a clutch head screw.I'd rather be in my garage. . .

A flat screwdriver of just the right size will work in a pinch.
John Deere used them in the 50's to hold the tin on.

Thanks for the input!!!
Found them on McMaster-Carr, 5 sizes in all (3/32, 1/8, 5/32, 3/16, 1/4) I probably don't need them all but I ordered them all anyway.....After all, I want to reuse the screws.....Our race team page

well I decided to do another mod to gain max travel of bars past the intended travel points just for that peace of mind. 1/8 inch is to close so now I'll have 1/2" or better. I cut a 3/16" wall...
