I had occasion to employ these two slim beauties recently. They will go where others won't. When you are in a tight spot, these are the answer. I'll leave it to you to recognise their potential use.

T carburetor bolts?

You got it in one Wayne. The Barcalo one has really fine ends and I have yet to find a carb/manifold combination that will not allow it to fit. They are short enough to be able to get at least part of a swing on each before fouling on something. Bear in mind that on RHD cars we have to work around the steering column also. They even worked on Henrietta with the engine side pans in place.

Hey there Allan!
I have a very similar wrench. Very nice, a little awkward doing a 1/16 turn and flip, but it works. Mine even worked once on a really tight T manifold that would not allow a slim socket with extensions to grab the nut.

Lucky bugger. Nice finds Allan!

Nice! Up to now I thought the only answer was a spell on the grinder to thin down a spanner?

Good finds. Little issues like these wrenches solve is part of the reason I have a stash of Wang Fooey wrenches in a drawer.IF I need to grind 1 or bend 1 to fit something odd,I use a off brand from that drawer.
