The end caps on a 40's SS are squared at the bottom corners. The end caps on a 50's SS are beveled at the bottom corners just like the top corners.
I don't know if they'd fit. I've never tried it.
 
You can force fit it but I'm afraid the final finish will be much to be desired owing to the difference in the end cap designs.

But it can be done
