majical screwdriver that I don't own.
 

Trying to take the window mechs out of my 57 doors and have run into a slight problem. I am sure most of you have one of these bits but where does one get one? Never seen it before in the 30 years I have been working on cars. Thanks

I had good luck with one I made. I took a older flat head screw driver and ground it down to make it "fatter" then I took a bit off the sides to make sure it fit in the screw head. I knew that they were in there for a while so I used a bit of heat and let them cool a bit. I did not have one refuse to come out.
Take it slow, make sure you have good grip and you should be ok..
Oh as to your original question, I have no idea where to get the right tool for these things.

Those are "clutch head" screws and the appropriate drivers are available through the various parts vendors and even at the local NAPA-at least here.

Just for a couple examples.

It's called a "clutch" screw bit. You should be able to find them at your local hardware/automotive/tool store, they are not really common, but not all that rare either.

Awesome, thanks guys...off to the parts store i go. Hope all your builds are going well. I am and have been sanding for the last couple of weeks, a couple more to go.

Sometimes you can find them at Sears too. I think they are in the tool catalog.

They are also in some of those XX# piece screwdriver bit sets in the plastic boxes.

Cheapest place I've found them is at Harbor Freight. They come in a set of about 20 different style bits in a plastic box for about $10.

Also I hear you can get it at a local tractor supply, they have them there, was used on the old tractors too.. Clutch head, good luck.
