Nicely done! Are you looking for an original coil or just something that works?

ive tracked one down from a BSA/Bantam that will fit and is relatively cheap at £15, I couldn't seem to locate an original one over hear.

Original is almost impossible to find. 6 volt coils for Cushman scooters, while only 1 output terminal, will fire one of the plugs. Just tuck the other wire in the magneto so it doesn’t get caught on the spinning flywheel.  That is how a vast majority of Simplex’s run on this side of the pond. Carpenter Cushman has them, reproduction for about $35.
