Default 1963 frame stencil color

What should be the actual correct frame stencil color on a 63 coupe? Noland's book states the part number stencil should be red. ( page 73 ) Mine are white. Is my car incorrect, or is this a typo in the book ? My car is a January built coupe.

Thanks all !

The latest version of the 1963 NCRS Judging Guide states on Pg. 117 that the frame part number is stenciled on the right rear frame rail in white. The pull date is on the right front frame rail in white lumber crayon.

There has been questionable information in the Fourth Edition Guide and a updated version should be out soon.

I am not sure if there are any changes in refference to stencils.

Size:  323.3 KBI'm Note sure about early cars, but late cars have the frame stencil on the right frame rail located between the front fender and the door seam.
