You can decide, color pics are a current F.Badelson restored A12 engine, the black&white photo I resized from an original 1969 roadtest magazine article 1969 A12 Superbee.... coil mounting bracket appears black

In the black and pic the coil bracket is silver not black. The original coil bracket on my 68 Coronet is the same color like in the B&W photo.



Yes agreed, THE "primary" coil "bracket" is silver cad, however, THE 6 BBL. "BRACKET" that is unique to ONLY 6 bbl induction cars that "mounts" the coil and primary coil bracket in the above photos is either orange or black, depending on the photo...hence the choice to "decide" I mentioned
