Along with a front end photo, any of the other numbers shown on this diagram that you might find could also help. As to the body number you have, a 39 would be 12xx-xxxx while 40s would be 13xx-xxxx.
An unlikely occurrence but others have found discrepancies with their cars paperwork that would indicate sometimes DMVs made mistakes in the year listed on registrations. For example, if the car was actually a new 40 model sold right after the Sept or October introduction but in the 39 calendar year some DMV person could have improperly or even purposely registered it as a 39. If the motor is gone that is too bad because if original it would also indicate a year.
