Repairable engines were stripped down, cleaned, and refinished, as evidenced by this photo from 1953.

Ibrahim ibn Ghalib gauges the flywheel of a reassembled continental engine at the former Dhahran Unit Reconditioning Shop. It is in this shop that parts from repairable engines were stripped down, cleaned, refinished, and put together to form another usable engine. T.F. Walters took this photo in March 1953.
