Hi,
What is the size, type and or name of that crazy dog bone style of screw holding the door jams and hood latch down?
I've never seen it before.
Thank you

clutch head screw head

Clutch head bits are readily available at many hardware stores (Ace Hardware, for example)
They are readily available on-line.
They are available in sets from most parts vendors.

If you are careful, and you are lucky, you can sometimes remove/install them with an exact-size flat-bladed screw driver.

Got a set of the PICQUIC 95010 hex drive bits from Amazon for $8.32 and Prime Free Shipping. Love these things! With my DeWalt 1/4" impact driver and these bits I have been able to take off any panel om my '51 Chevy 2 ton. I also picked up a set of screwdriver handle clutch drivers and a set of the 3/8" socket drive bits. So far the impact does the best job. Be sure to clean out any dirt first that might not let the drivers seat full depth. If there is any rust involved, a little shot of PB Blaster and waiting 10 minutes has taken care of every screw for me . . .so far!
