Looks like a 1937 ... based on tank emblem design. See photos here..

Could it be a 39 knucklehead?

The closest I can find is a 1936. The stripe surrounding the emblem on the tank is the only year that they had that type of stripe. Perhaps the lower part of the stripe is missing from the photo that you supplied.
See pic..
