What material or fabric was used for the top on an early 28 Model A open cab pick up? The top I have appears to be vinyl and the frame is definitely not original.

Material would be similar to long/short cobra grain black vinyl, sold by most model A parts suppliers

such as Snyders, Brattons Tams Mikes etc.

the frame is fixed, although after mkt frames are sold that do fold down.
