Most of the coils you have pictured are not worth the effort to repair. Here in the U.S. they are easy to find. Since you are in Europe, I suggest ebay.
You probably don't have cores that are rebuildable. You can buy coils from Fun Projects, or other dealers such as Langs.

There is a fellow near you who does fantastic work with coils. I'll try to find his name.

I believe I detect a bit of trans-Atlantic leg-pulling going on here.

Yoda - messing with the coil boxes while the engine is running, learns a valuable lesson, he does!
Don't mess with the "Power of the Fords!"

I think he can get 4 good operating coil boxes out of his assortment. He will have to replace some parts, I'm sure. But he will have to work on them quite a bit.
He might want to see if he can trade them in as cores on some rebuilt and adjusted units. That would be the easiest route. I know a LOT of coil rebuilders have been running short of cores to rebuild recently. That is what I would try first.

Seriously Ron is a master with coils. I have 8 coils and one coil box from him and they worked like heaven!

Today I get the visit of a GOOD Witch.
Here is what we did together. Made 6 out of 8

The metal top coil need only a refill
The others need the points and are waiting for the new capacitors I ordered last week.
