Thanks! It makes sense that it would have been white, I just wanted to make sure. I built a Ranger ns 1966. Would be fun to do another. Here is a copy of a slide showing part of my collection as a kid. A few kits, some Design of the Month builds, and a couple scratch-builds. I was a big fan of brushed Estes butyrate dope finishes. 
Sadly, I built that Delta as the carrier for a Camroc. I just never managed to buy one due to lack of funds.
For some reason my copies of this slide got cropped. I cannot find the originals, and I'm sure there were a few more rockets to the right of that green/white Ranger.
Notice that I have almost all the rockets labeled with their names, using the Estes letters decal sheet.
