I checked the rebuild tag on my Sexton engine, it's 205 Workshop as well. Dated 3-3-52. One odd note is the engine number on the tag, 456, does not match the engine's number, 507415. I wonder if the engine number on the tag was just a sequentail number assigned to the engines as they passed through the workshop. My engine shows very little wear as well, just the damage from condensation in a few cylinders. The motor had a stuck exhaust vavle on #7 cylinder that resulted in a broken push rod, and a heavily corroded supercharger impeller.

My engine was rebuilt 6-2-52 and had a number of 414. The original number is 507412. It looks like ours were on the assembly line pretty close together. My vehicle shop number is 1900. 1941 is in the Crown Point museum nearby, and 1539 is in a museum in southern Indiana. Jesse.
