A Carson top is a one-piece, padded, upholstered, removable top for a car.
The design was invented by Bob Houser in 1935 when he worked for Amos Carson at Carson Top Shop in Los Angeles.
The first Carson top was likely made for a Ford Model A convertible and nowadays it is mostly used on hot rods and customs.
