I offer a complete restoration service for Ford ( only) distributors built from '58 thru '78. Most of my service is performed for those that want factory new appearance. I do not sandblast the housings as that ruins the original finish. I offer a restoration service for the Autolite vacuum advance units also. Both the Autolite dual vacuum and single diaphragm types serviced. I stock over 200 distributors and TRY to keep some of the most sought after ones here. I try to offer reasonable rates and only the highest quality available. Please feel free to ask any questions about my service. Thanks, Tim O'Connor To visit my website click on the small globe shown to the left!

Hi Tim,
I am Bryan Cobb, from Cartersville, GA.
bryan@llind.com
Shortly after the first of the year, I'm going to send you the OE distributor from my 66 C-Code convertible.
I have | C5AF 1212 N |
| FoMoCo |
| 6BB |
ENGINEERING NUMBER C5OF-12131-A
I would like for you to work ALL your MAGIC on it, and make it LOOK and FUNCTION like BRAND NEW, including the period-correct vacuum advance canister on the front. I THINK it's suppose to be a FoMoCo vacuum unit.
It will be a concourse driven class car.
I need your address and preferred method of payment. Do you take PayPal?
How much damage $$$$$$ can I expect. The distributor was working fine up until I removed it a ouple of months ago. It has never been sandblasted but I cleaned it up with a green schotchbrite pad.
The engine has never been rebuilt and has 85k miles on it. I bought the car in 1979, from the original owner with 60k on it.

Tim did mine for my 65 convert. Charles referred me to him and I am very, very satisfied.
-
Tim does really nice work!
-
He also did my distributor.
-
Also did mine. Great service, price and turn around. Hard to find someone who keeps his word like Tim did for me.

Tim rebuilt my 1969 428 4spd distributor, recurved the dist. and installed the correct vacuum advance. Looks and operates perfectly. Two thumbs up!!
-
Just got mine from Tim and it looks great! Good guy to deal with! :)

How to contact Tim O' Connor for distributor restoration services. Is he still doing distributor work?
-
Yup, he did mine earlier this year. It looked brand new and I didn't have to adjust a thing on it (well, except timing!).
His e-mail is Tim O'Connor <tnpoc at netnitco.net>
-
his website says he is closed until january 2015.
-
I sure could use Tim's services. What's his web address? The link for the website above is no longer working.
-
Never mind, found it... http://www.428cobrajetcars.com/home (http://www.428cobrajetcars.com/home). I sure hope he's not going out of business.
-
I hope he is well, in good health and just needs some time off.
-
Good news! Tim is alive and kick'n. I had an email exchange with him. He's said he was trying to get caught up in the shop. He is still filling parts orders from his website.
-
It says on tims website closed till further notice ? Is he still doing this work??
-
I don't think he's done any distributor work in quite a while.
-
Going to lock this 7 year old thread since it has run its course. If he chooses to start back up I'm sure he will post a new "I'm back" post.
Best wishes to him and his
