The sales code is M21, so if that is not on your fender tag and / or broadcast sheet, no drip rail moldings.
It was an extra cost item.
My 1970 Valiant 4-door does not have it.

My 69 valiant 4 door doesn't have that trim either but it's a V100, very basic model with no options or trim
Some have it and others do not. This was an option on higher trim levels. If you found this drip rail moulding from another car, it could be installed on yours. (From another 4-door)

It is what it is...
My 69 valiant has the M21 on tag. And has the chrome drip rail trim..

does the fact it has the drip rail mean at one time this car had a vinyl top?

No.
But drip rail moldings were an option without a vinyl top, or included with a vinyl top.
Drip rail moldings were also included in some 'appearance' group options at times depending on the car model and year.
