Default Ignition Coil

Hi there
Can anyone please tell me the correct replacement ignition coil for my Bristol 410. I am running the standard set up with points and not electronic ignition and am in the U.K.
Thanks

Any good quality 12V coil will be suitable provided it is suitable for use with a ballast resistor. I read once that Chrysler took to using ballast resistors to improve the longevity of the points. By the way the resistor is already in the ignition circuit

thank you for this info. There is nothing wrong with the one that I have. I just feel that a spare would be a good item to carry.
