I thought of that.  I took one of the words from a Magnetic Poetry set (this word is "ride", which is strangely appropriate) and put it in the groove for the top.  Magnet was held UP away from the steel body.

CT2846L is definitely sporting a windshield cap which is chrome-plated steel.  It is easily the nicest piece of chrome on the car.  Surround on the back of he cockpit (to which the top or tonneau is lift-the-dot fastened) appears to be aluminum.
