Re: 53 Caribbean Convertible mistery missing part

sounds like the hydro-electric pump (that powers the convertible top)should be there by your description. Look around in all of your parts boxes for something that looks like a starter motor (or generator) housing with a domed cap mounted on one end, held on by a bail-clip. It will also have anti-vibration rubber stud-mounts. I'm reasonably sure this is what goes there, again, I'm a V-8 idiot savant, but have spent time around the 51-54 models.
