I do not recall ever seeing the roof color next to the body color I thought they were always above each other.
Am I reading this correct that this car had no vinyl top from the factory?

That's an appropriate layout for that year and plant. Different plants coded differently.
V1X tells us it had a black vinyl top.
It like looks legit to me too.

Q5 is on there twice because one is for the roof color and the other for the body color. So a painted roof car would tell you,that on the tag.
The upper door frames were never body color. But, sometimes they happen to be the same color as the body of the car, black, white, tan, B7 blue etc.
So the code for the outside was not dictating the upper door frame color. There are separate codes for exterior paint, roof paint and upper door frame paint.
On this car the X9 is e black upper door frame. Now if this car was black they would be the same color, but they each have their own code on the tag/ sheet.

Q5 Q5 P6X X9
1969 LA plant with or without a vinyl top listed exterior paint & interior as:
Q5 = upper body paint - "bright turquoise metallic"
Q5 = lower body paint - "bright turquoise metallic"
P6X = premium grade vinyl bucket seat interior - "BLACK"
X9 = Upper Door Frame (UDF) paint - "black"
some plants omitted the first (upper) paint code on vinyl top cars.

Q5 is the roof paint code
Q5 is the body paint code
V1X is the vinyl top code.
Think back to why this tag is on the car. These codes tell the workers what to do. Paint the top and body Q5 and install a black vinyl top.
