A vinyl type material (actually more a rubberized canvas) was standard on Caribbean HTs. Believe was supposed to resemble the convertible top fabric materials. There was a fairly thick felt pad underneath which collected water after a while. The body metal was same as 400 so a lot of tops rusted quite nicely safely hidden under the pad--until it was too late.
