Bumperette Removal

I would like to get the bumperettes off of my '67. It looks like a star bit maybe? Can anyone give me the correct size so I can buy the right tool????

I believe what you are looking for is a spindle bit, not torx or star. I needed one for adjusting the door catches (I believe it was a 8mm). I bought mine from a Cornwell tool guy at my buddy's garage. I am sorry I am not more help but my car along with the car specific tools are at the mechanics.

I believe the pelican parts tool section has the tool. Try:

and look for:
4 Pc 3/8" & 1/2" Dr Tri Sq Bit Skt Set

I could be wrong. Can someone back me up on this? Is this the set he needs?

I need to adjust my drivers door too, so it would be great to get a set with sizes to do both....

I bought a set at NAPA Auto Parts, I would imagine all auto part stores carry them.

So....

Everyone agrees this will take off my bumperettes and adjust my doors?

I love buying tools and hate getting the wrong ones!

There's a PEP Boys across the street from my office.

THX for the patience with a question that was obvious to most of you......

Best,
Morrie
