My guess
is that these were to protect the paint on the top of the doors. Based on seeing a lot of roadsters with that feature as part of the rumble seat area, with leather flaps to protect the paint on the rear mudguads(fenders) where passangers arms would otherwise rest on the body. I'm often wrong, and if I am, I'm sure somebody will correct me!
