John,there are two different lenses for 39. Deluxe and Standard which were the same as the 38s. If it warms up I’ll check my lenses in my barn.

Deluxe and Mercury trim rings (bezels) are the same on 39s.

Hello, this discussion reminded me of some old lens doors I had laying around. Not sure what they go to. Pics are attached. I need to get rid of these but don't want to mislead anyone.
Thanks,

Thanks for the feedback. If anyone wants them let me know. I have six, four are in good shape, two have been painted and a bit raggedy, but structurally good.

I will post them for sale in the classified section, next week.

Hello, I know this is a old thread but I'm wondering if you ever sold the first two headlight rims you showed (the ones w/o the turn signals in them)? I'm interested if you still have them. Thanks Reid

 

[jplawman]

This is a 1937,1938, all passenger car, and 1939 standard. 1939 ford deluxe, and 1939 mercury are wider, and flatter, no peak.
