Going to tune it up before putting the belly mower on it. It has a 12 volt conversion on it. This is the coil:

Ever see one like it? Most likely will replace it what should I put in?
 
That looks like an original style IH coil. Can't tell if it is 6 or 12 volts. I'd be looking for a clamp for the front axle rather than worrying about the coil.
 
It's most likely the original. They still make that style & I believe they sell them here on this site. If you dont need the original look, you can get a 12v coil just about any auto, tractor, truck, etc. place. You might need the coil that does not require the resistor. I don't see one on your tractor.

As stated,the coil is original. With the tractor running, measure the voltage at the coil terminal going to the ignition switch (not the distributor)
if it reads 12+ volts, that coil needs a dropping resistor (mid 60s Chevy, or Chrysler ballast resistor will do it). The coil should be attached to match the battery ground. (it is probably backwards now)
The Negative coil terminal should go to the distributor (where it finds ground through the points) Positive to Switch. Very nice Tractor. Jim
