Recorded originUnited States
ClassBrass Era passenger automobile
Power35 hp
Entry touring identity in the expanded 1911 range. Standard model-code references distinguish B-40 by its 35 hp advertisement. The period-derived database instead groups B-40 with the 40/50 Series and records two five-passenger touring price rows at $1,350 and $1,650 without assigning either row to a surviving model code. No price is therefore attached here. Shared series facts are 117-inch wheelbase, 283.7 cu in, 28.9 ALAM-rated horsepower, splash lubrication, multiple-disc clutch, high-tension magneto/dry-battery ignition and tubular radiator.

Record depth — Documented
How this is measured → This record contains useful sourced evidence, but it does not yet meet the reference-ready standard. Still needed: attributed imagery. Fields we cannot source stay empty rather than guessed.
Research notes
No surviving factory chassis ledger or model allocation has been recovered. Contemporary sales and competition evidence proves manufacture, but neither marque-wide nor model-specific production totals are asserted.
