So, back to sending units:)

Mike,
The single wire temperature sender should work with your gauge. This is the variable temperature sender. The two wire one is just a switch that will peg hot when the temp in that head goes too high. As stated you only need the one wire/terminal sender.

King Seeley 6 volt bi-metallic "points style" electric gauges/senders were used up to 1956. In 56' they adapted the 6 volt points style gauge/sender to 12 volt. They then realized that it was a complex system and in 57' converted to an external voltage regulator and "modern" rheostat type senders, which were used into the 80's. Your 59' has a modern type sender and the 42' has the old 6 volt points style.
