One I got from an acquaintance of mine.

The other I got at Hershey last year.

The top one is "T" screwdriver. The bottom one is not.

[Will_Vanderburg]

Yes I know. They are similar, however

The bottom one came with Evinrude and Johnson outboard motors (same thing - different paint)

That one looks like the one I hauled to hershey last year for a friend to find a new home.

Compared to other Ford tools, those T screwdrivers are hard to come by. The wood handles don't have a great survival rate.

I got it from a HUGE vendor of tools in the area before you cross the overhead walkway.

Well, they may be scarce, but I have two of 'em! Took a while, but I found 'em. One is in slightly better cosmetic condition than the other, but both are decent anyway.

I know the one you mean, and HUGE is the right word. But I bet he doesn't have a lot of T screwdrivers.

The Ford screwdriver I had was used as a chisel in its latter days. So much for the wooden handle.

Does the T screwdriver have a steel hex cap set into the end of the wood handle? The driver I have looks like the T driver in the pic, has a wood handle with steel hex end and it's a solid part of the square driver shaft. This seems to be a good feature for sensing the spark voltage when using the screwdriver to seek out faulty plugs on a running engine. jb

I wonder how many times my hands have gone up the screwdriver went flying! LOL Most the wood handle screwdrivers I have don't have the exposed shaft on the ends and of course the plastic ones don't ether so I don't ever think about it when I pick one up. Generally they get me when I use someone else's.

The A model equivalent has a round shaft which also goes clear through the handle. I found one like that with a Ford script on the shaft. I didn't know that when i bought it, as it had been used as a paint stirer.

I still use modern plastic handled drivers with steel clear through the handle. These are good to hammer on when trying to unscrew wood screws which have rusted in place.

The shank of the screw driver (T one) goes all the way to the end of the wooden handle and is exposed
