On my 63 car I was able to unscrew these screws with no trouble. On my 
65 cars I wasn't so lucky.

Buy a very small pair of Channel Lock brand pliers.  The ones I have are 
#421 and are 4.625" long, overall, with blue handles.A big bonus is, 
after you have these pliers, you'll use them all the time.
Open the trunk and grab the two outside screw threads , and turn counter 
clockwise. They will back out.

The inside screws take a little more finesse.
Take a small cold chisel and putting the blade between the screw head 
and the body, drive the chisel. The washer head will lift, enabling you 
to grab the head with the channel locks.I''ve done two cars this way, 
and I didn't damage the body at all, doing so.
You may want to lay a strip of tape on the body where you drive the chisel.
Just in case you're worried about messing up the paint, but I didn't 
have to.

Good Luck
