No, she's not a White Ginger. They were only made in 1961 and always come on a Barbie-only body with a small neck knob and red polish. Your doll is an oxidized Platinum from 1963.

I agree, the body is not correct for a white ginger Barbie. See this website myvintagebarbies.com for info.Screenshot_2016-08-07-08-03-14.png
