The 40's were a Canadian-made tractor manufactured in Brantford, Ontario from '49 - '57. They were available in both gas and diesel but I don't know if both types were available in all of these years. The reference I've got says that the engine was a Buda 230 cubic inch engine for both the gas and diesel. The Cockshutt 30 was the forerunner of the 40's and 50's and apparently the 30 was the first mass produced tractor to have a real useable 'live' PTO which was developed and designed in Canada. The model 40 was also marketed in the U.S. as the Coop E4 and were virtually identical except they were painted entirely in sort of a burnt orange color (and were definitely not as good a looking tractor as the Cockshutts in their red and yellow colors). I believe it also showed up in the states from '54 to '57 as the Golden Eagle brand and also as the Blackhawk brand, and they had the yellow-cream color on the front tin (tank, hood, and grille cover). If you've got a serial number, email me at the address below and I'll give you the year. I have a model 30 (restored) and would love to get a model 20 which are extremely rare in these parts (north central Alberta, Canada). mballash@wci.ab.ca

They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
