Rather interesting! I know that post-war Lincoln Cars Ltd on the Great West Route in Brentford (FMC subsidiary) carried on refurbishing V-8 engines for use in Carriers, etc. The question arises as to whether Dagenham did any more work or, as I suspect, farmed it out to contractors. Later on West Yorkshire Foundries cast engine parts for Ford for obsolete engines still in use. WYF specialised in small or large jobs for the motor industry.
