Default '66 Tri power coil

What did the original ignition coils look like on a '66 tri power car. I'm wanting to think they were brown on the plastic top portion and the metal body was black. Does anyone know for sure? Thanks.

One more question. What about the Transistorized Ignition? Thanks.

I’m confident the TI coils are Black for 64-65-66.

I think 67 was Red.

I only have pics of a Survivor 64 and 65 with Transistor Ignition below.

Chris.
