A stock replacement '42-'48 Ford coil would probably work in your situation. They are standalone coils that are available in the aftermarket, designed to be used with the Ford under dash resistor. The problem is they are not configured like a modern "can" coil, but making a special bracket to mount it shouldn't be too difficult. Wiring it up should be straightforward.
Still, knowing the problems some have had with the resistors and their replacements, I would opt with a standard 8BA replacement coil wired directly (eliminating the resistor). Anytime you can reduce the number of components in a system, you are ahead of the game.
