Interesting. On my '37, they are flat head. I have a hand impact driver, and after two types of penetrating oil, all I've succeeded in doing is breaking 3 3/8" flat head impact bits. I pulled the wood out that the interior panels mount to and was planning on applying heat to the screw from the backside. Hopefully I can find some phillips head screws for when I put the doors back on. Max Merrit has them, but I was quoted about $3 each; that seems a little steep.
