Thanks for all the replies on the original hood sticks color.  The 
overwhelming consensus was that all original hoodsticks were a "tan" 
color.  Most said this was to match the underside of the original tops.  
I have two 30+ year old white tops, one that may be an original.  The 
apparently original one is tan on the inside and the  aftermarket top is 
black inside.  My new, white Robbins top is black inside.

After way too much thought and further consultation with my wife, I 
painted the sticks black this morning.  I decided to stick with the 
apparent "original intent" to match the inside of the top rather than 
stay with the original color.  Now I just have to install it.....

Ben.....
