others say all hipo's had black covers at the coil end.

2nd pix is a 66 hipo 3000 mile car. feb build date.

Though that car may be reported as having 3K miles it appears that the car has since been restored.

In fact both cars appear to be restored cars.

Of course since this is not a Shelby detail Mustangs from this year/period should be helpful also

this is the unrestored/original shelby you posted in another thread. it has a yellow wire cover.
what was correct for hipo’s?

Black is typical.
