The capacity for all 1939 Ford models with 112" wheelbase is 15 gallons to the bottom of the filler pipe according to The 1938-39 Ford Book For Passenger Cars.

My bad. Carcrazy is correct. The capacity for 1939 was raised to 15 Gallons from the prior capacity of 14 gallons of 1938. I learned something today.
