Were early DB4 cars built at Feltham, prior to the NP move ?

This might be of interest.

A DB4 which has remained unused in a garage for a very long time.

The chassis plate was shown to the camera and I think I could read Feltham.
Were the early cars built at Feltham, then later ones at Newport Pagnell ?

There is so much corrosion, that one of Works fixed price rebuilds might be sensible value.

As has been mentioned elsewhere, a good promotional video for the upcoming auction. BTW, I think it has been observed that NP were using up a stock of Feltham chassis plates.

Ths company was headquartered in feltham,
Platform Chassis manufacture in Huddersfield at the DB tractor works
Body and engine in NP, and final assembly

The final move from feltham to NP was service and engineering, in early 64, but the chassis was still made in huddersfield until the early 70s. The works racing team under DB was only ever at Feltham
