Are they the same? The pointer too?

Why do you ask Bob?   Do you have a 39 or 40 speedo?  I have a 39 if you want to compare?  A study on the internet gives the impression the needle is longer but that may be just the photo.

If it's for Ross? I put a 40 dash in the 39 but I have a very nice 39 speedo with the curved glass and a 40 clock with the flat glass. But the 39 speedo face is much nicer than the 40 I think. If it's for Ross I'll happily swap.

Q,
It's not for Ross. Steve sent me some 39 dash pics. There's minor differences, but I think the head & pointer are the same. Your thoughts?? Those parts are listed in an AC parts manual. I don't have one. Does anyone have one??
