Colour was a kind of grey with brown/black flecks in it . My 1930 Sports Coupe had a LeBonney Barron Black top that had been sprayed mid grey with a light over spray of Black/Brown Just enough to give it flecks in it . Looked close to original and much better than tan or black If you want I can post a picture but not from this (work) Computer -Karl

Thanks!! Karl, if you have time, please post the photo of the top you mentioned. I am leaning toward a black color.

Thank you all!!

I went with the brown cloth top material on mine. Thought it went well with the color of the car, almost matches the seal brow.
