  • You have raised a question I have wondered about. Were Carson tops a stock style from some make that folks used to customize other cars or were they strictly aftermarket product? What is their story? *NM*
    • Carson tops were strickly an aftermarket upholstery shop in LA , think they started in the late 30's....Rodders Journal, maybe Pat Ganahl did a feature on the Carson Top Shop, they were also fully padded inside. *NM*
