I'm restoring a 49 woodie. It has lots of interior trim metal screws. Should they be phillips head or slotted?

For a '49 Station Wagon, oval Phillips for all trim forward of the door post. Most rearward of the door post were slotted, but there are exceptions. Phillips were also used for quarter trim panels, tailgate trim panel, and rear deck trim retaining screws. Rear corner trim was slotted.
