Peter,
Good to see the old Lynx is now apart and ready for the mating of the hull(?).

outside what I think is the International Harvester plant. The logo below the roof peak appears to be the IH logo.

I am pretty sure the building is Ford and not IHC. The Servicepub factory photos CD has several shots of the Lynx, but also has shots of other vehicles with the factory as the backdrop. One with a carrier shows a huge FORD sign on top of the building and another well known picture shows (what I presume if the other end of) the building with stacks of FAT and 3 ton bodies waiting for assembly (no Lynx hulls that I can see!)
Back to the discussion of Final assembly....I guess you have final assembly and final testing before delivery to the army...two different things. I presume at least the latter was done by Ford as they were the ones contracted to deliver the vehicles. Personally I would never let someone else do the final test.
