Funny you mention this, I’ve owned countless 60’s and 70’s cars and I’ve forgotten the number of times where the only solution to get the filter off (after being seized in for god knows how long) was the ‘screw driver through the side and a hammer’ method.

With that said I normally use the strap type filter wrench. Except when desperate.
