I've attached pics of the horn rod and steering wheel center I lifted from the web. The horn button is on the rod assy and stays stationary as the steering wheel turns, so there is no provision for a horn button if you don't use the '39 horn rod. I'm not sure if the '40 steering shaft is hollow and will accept the '39 rod. Otherwise you will have to use a separate horn button.

Also, the back side of the '40 wheel is flat and much larger diameter than the '39. It is also "thinner" from top to bottom, or front to back making it necessary to cut from the back of the '39 wheel. I'm not sure how much of the plastic/rubber-like material you can remove wihtout getting into the banjo pot-metal structure.
