    I am new here and would like to know if '40 Ford Headlights will bolt right in to a '39 fender? Thanks in advance.

    Updating the 39's is a neater way to go.

    I think a 39 should be left just the way it is. Has a much smoother look than a 40.

    They will fit with little work in a 39 deluxe fender ,a 39 standard fender will take major modifications
