Is there a place you can purchase the coil alone for the older A/C brush type clutch?

I was taking apart and older clutch that has brushes to activate it, with the ring on the back of the clutch hub that the brushes contact. I broke the clutch coil itself, I ended up breaking the post off that the 12v passes through to energize the coil. Does anyone know of a source for the coil itself or am I better off using this as a core and buying a rebuilt one?

Reviving an old thread.
I'm having the AC on a 67 Vert worked on.
Tech says the AC clutch coil is bad in the factory AC compressor.
He says only replacement he can find is 1 with a single wire that goes to a magnet compared to the original type that has a brush setup.

Can the single wire type be used?

I spoke to CAA today and they said the new style can be used, newer updated design, just not factory correct.

Guess the new style has clearance issues.
Just ordered correct factory one from CAA.
