Western Engine Rebuilders
 
Does anyone know of them. I have 3 Ford flatheads that state Authorized Ford of Canada rebuild assembly by Western Engine Rebuilders.

Not all of the flatheads have this tag obvously but I was amazed to learn all three of my old Fords I ws going to fix all had his tag above the passenger side water pump.

Does anyone know f this company? I would assume they ar quite good with Flathead Fords/

Ford authorized, certain Dealers, Sears, and or a regional facility to do "Official" rebuilds.
I've never seen that Facility referenced so I have no idea what they were.

I osted it in my reginal chater It was a rebuilding shop in Saskatoon
Closed down prior to me being born.

I would keep the tags on the engines, maybe relocate them to a more noticeable place. Just a "What's That" thing.

You can't be very old if WAR closed before you were born, it was still open in the 1980's. They were pretty good back in the flathead days, but quality went away the last decade or so that they were in business. Probably why they went under.

I was born in 1987. Ya pretty young for a flattie driver, I know.
