Chris, my father John, never actually had a BT40 .. What we had was a real secondhand BT38 that was seriously smashed by my brother Greg at Shelsey and rebuilt using a BT40 Tub .. No idea if teh tub had a chassis number and my father cannot remember either.. nobody cared then !!

I am sure that he got two BT40 tubs in one go and sold some on .. I remember going to brabhams and meeting bernie to buy some nice cotton reel rear wheels but not sure if brabham themselves were the tub suppliers.... any help ?
