From what I understand...if it has LM23 on the fender tag...it's a mod top car.

Your understanding is incorrect. That's the model number. L is probably Dart, and M is medium price class. I can only venture to guess that this is a Swinger. 23 is the bodystyle, which means hardtop

There are pictures of other mod top colors and top color choices if you click on the hyperlink to the registry.

But those color options were for Plymouths, not Dodges. Besides, colors were limited with the tops. In this car's case, the vinyl top is coded V1H, with the "H" stating the color. I don't know what H stands for.
