Successful 1960 Ethiopian coup attempt

If the 1960 coup attempt had been successful, it might've resulted in Ethiopia becoming an actual Constitutional Monarchy under Amha Selassie but it could've also taken other paths.
 
I imagine a more left wing Ethiopia maybe land reform other then that I'm not sure
Land reform is super-underrated as a vaccination against peasant support for communism and a boost for industrialization. The communists in Russia, China, and Ethiopia all promised land reform but effectively repealed it a few years later with collectivization of agriculture that killed millions.

A large class of land-owning, self-sufficient farmers can grow subsistence for their families as well as specializing in different crops for the market, building up savings that can be invested in capital goods and heavy industry by a private banking system.

What do you think would happen in Ethiopia if land reforms were actually established.
Perhaps a relationship with Israel. Bulwarks of faith and modernity
Ethiopia's relationship with Israel has already been established - in fact, Israel was one of the reasons why the 1960 coup never succeeded.
