Speedo source?

My mom got me a speedometer cable for xmas but it was the wrong one(from mid fifty). I called them and they didn't have the cable I needed.

Is this the correct one?

Ford - Ford Speedometer Cable And Housing - All Ford V8 Except Ford-O-Matic - Macs Auto Parts

I have the 239, HD 3 speed and the 4.88 rear.

The internal cable cables usually always the same. It's the outer sleeve that's tricky. If you have the original cable compare that to the pictures online for similar cables. It's the coupler on each end that matters. Mac's says that cable should fit my 1956 truck but I guarantee it doesn't. I bought mine on Amazon.
