The 1940 Mercury headlight buckets will fit your 39 Mercury fenders, allowing you to install sealed beams. The stock headlights on the 39 Mercury are similar to the headlights on the 39 Ford and are very sleek. You may have aftermarket sealed beam conversions. Smoe of them are very ugly. Can you please post a photo of your car, we would appreciate seeing one.

There is nothing "bulky" about 39 Merc headlight trim. Are you sure that your car hasn't been converted to sealed-beam headlights with an aftermarket adapter?

pumphrey 3338: I have a grill in suboptimal condition, but probably restorable; cost would be minimal. send me a PM.

You should specify the body type in your want ad and post it on the classified section of the Early Ford V-8 Club's web site. You should also post it on the Swap meet area of the Ford Barn http://fordbarn.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=6

Welcome to the "fun" part of restoration. I spent the better part of five years searching for parts for my '47 convertible, many of which are unique, and not shared with closed cars. Beware of the "scammers" who claim to have the part you need, but demand the cash "up front". When I started in this game, many years ago, I wish I had a resource such as this Forum. What you want and need is out there, but it requires persistance. The Early Ford V8 Club is a precious exchange, and if you need to find something, or get cornered by a problem, this is the place for help!

Not sure where you live , but you might post a want ad on the Sacramento and San Francisco Craigslist. Also post a free want ad with Cruisin News in Sacramento; www.cruisinnews.com. I was at the Auburn ,Ca last Sunday (6-12) and saw a fairly nice 39 Merc grill there for sale. This swap meet usually draws a lot of folks from the Sacramento area and Cruisin News covers a large part of the San Francisco and Sacramento area. The editor of Crusin News is also a Merc guy.
