I was going to guess one is a "thingamajig" and the other is a "whatchamacallit".

Is the one on the right used to straighten the top or bottom of a bumper?
 
I'll let this go one more day. Though Bill you are close on the shape of the tool. And there is nothing to compare size with. The black on is about a half inch around and a inch tall. The silver one about 6inches over all.

Most of us with out these tool would use a flat blade screwdriver with maybe a hammer to do what they do. On tool will save paint the other damage to trim.
 
The small round one is a bezel nut removing and installing tool. The other one I have no idea. I thought that it might be for removing paint can lids.
 
OK here they are in use. the one is a KD windshield wiper arm remover, I have had it since the 70s. the other is for the locking ring on the wiper transmission that holds the bezel in place

Dan I wish I had that socket every time I do that. But I have to bit my tongue the wiper arm remover is not a KD but is Cornwell cf-85 so old it was made in the USA.
 
in reality I have found the cheaper lines usually work will I have take the center door window cranks off with my harbor fright took but not my stap-on.

I had the same problem in the 66 I did for Jim. so to keep things going were did you get the shock socket? been a lot of time I wish I had one.

here is one more of those hand dandy tools that work for one thing only but ford gm and Chrysler used them on some of there cars.

Its a Snap On ,I would guess they still make them . They make 2 or 3 different sizes.
 
that last one pictures was designed to put back in the windshield clips after you lost one taking off the molding. but they only fit the one size. now there are so many of the out there one could not have a tool for every one.

Here is an interesting tool. Do you know what it is? First picture shows the "top" side, and the second, the underside. The third picture is with a dollar bill and a nickel, to give you a size reference. I covered the manufacturers name, so you can't Google it...
