A endfed vertical for 40m is around 67'. Could a coil be placed in the
center of the endfed wire to shorten it to say 40'? This would make it
easier for my portable QRP work but will it work? Any thoughts on a short
ended 1/2 vertical?

You might want to check out the article in the May 2004 issue of QST on
ppg 28. It is for a shortened end fed 1/2 wave 80 meter antenna.
