Hood Emblems

What color should the FORD letters on the 56 hood emblems be? Have seen them red and black.

Doesn't matter the series, they were all painted red.

I'm inclined to believe Abe, but take a peek at this pair I got recently
Abe says red, but this is a pair i just pulled off a hood i bought. Truck was repainted at some point, but I couldnt see any hints of red anywhere

Nope, it's me trying to sell em there (also listed here in the for sale thread). I pulled em off a hood I got a little over a week ago with a pair of brand new fenders. The hood was definitely repainted at some point, so there's nothing saying that the trim is original. I just figured it might be something to add to the conversation potentially
