The way the accessory is promoted to the dealers as a safety and high profit feature and to be suggested to customers, who is to say an enterprising individual didn't sell one to a good customer driving a 39 when the washer was introduced. IMO, if you want to add one it could be justified.

It could be just like the 51's equipped with power brakes which didn't officially arrive until 52 or the pre 49 cars equipped with the R11 overdrive. There was a campaign, instructions and a kit to retrofit those items to the earlier cars so I wouldn't think a washer on an earlier car could be considered any less "correct".
