question Bugatti engine rebuilding WW2 vehicles

[STRIKE AND RETURN 460]

Does anybody know anything about the Bugatti factory re building WW2 Engines / vehicles ?

I found a re build plate dated 1960 on my engine showing it was re built and a friend has a GMC showing the same thing. I was interested in finding out more about this rebuild factory.

I've had through my hands an unused,reconditioned engine for an IHC Halftrack rebuilt by Bugatti for the French Army and sold as surplus in the early 80s. I don't recall the rebuild date though.

Thank you David, a very interesting reply as my engine is also a IHC Halftrack.
