This guy is claiming that the white painted top was an option that was rare, that most people got the vinyl top. It looks like a beautiful car I was just curious.

It is very rare, in fact our friend, Hank's 70 has a white painted top and I like the way it looks. When we were in Flint last year we met a guy that had a 70 nova with painted top as well. That car on ebay is really nice and I would not mind having it as well.
