I know most of what DC offers is re-production parts but from time to time they also have some NOS parts available. Here is their deal, they buy OEM tooling from the OEM supplier's that no longer wants to manufacture the OEM parts due to the "low-volume". After obtaining the OEM tooling, they then decide to either manufacture the parts in house or sub it out to another company. "Sometimes", there are existing inventory of OEM/NOS parts that the supplier had on hand during the time of tooling sale which DC buys at a discounted rate. Thats why they have some NOS parts available that could have been packaged in Ford packing. As for being able to sell re-production parts in Ford packaging its very possible but in my opinion, if they are, Ford doesn't know about it, which is very unlikely. Just my assumption here, if you bought parts from DC in Ford packaging, they were "probably" NOS parts. I will check with Dennis sometime in the next few days and let you know for sure.

I called Dennis last week but he is out of the office for awhile re-cooping from knee surgery. I did however speak to one of the "old timers" there and he said that they do package their parts in Ford packing using the Ford service part numbers.
They do have the D2TZ-1A029-A red Ford turn ***** in stock now and yes they are re-popped parts. Here is their phone number. (800) 476-9653
$12./ea
