John Smythe
Heritage Coach Works, Mississauga

I have not spoken with him for several years, the last # I have for him is 905-456-7575.
He builds magnificent tops & tonneaus for Cobras. I believe he was the original supplier for Johnex & all the subsequent owners of Johnex.
He did mine & it is the best I have ever seen on any Cobra, I believe they call the material (stayfast?) a cloth material they use on high end convertibles. Expensive but very good quality.

Michel,
John does have a very British accent, Unless he has had a health issue that I am not aware of, I do not remember having any problem understanding him. Perhaps your best bet may be to visit him & have a face to face discussion. That is always good anyway as it eliminates discrepancies

Hi Craig,the voice on my answering machine was totally different from when I called to his business. I don't have a problem with british or irish accent because I work with a lot british guys and some Irish but that voice was one of a dying man. I will try to call back again,thanks for getting back to me on this,cheers !

Michel

I called his # today out of curiosity & got his machine, that voice is the voice I remember. You said the" voice on your machine" does that mean he left a message on your A/M that was different than the person you spoke with?
If so was the voice on your machine the same as the voice on his A/M??
I would hate to think that the "dying voice" was John, as I found him to be a very nice & honest person to deal with.

Default Tonneau cover

I have a tonneau cover and top from an early Brackdraft (Venom) that I no longer have a need for.
The tonneau is in excellent condition with the cut out for the roll bar.
I had the top up once or twice (in the garage to see what it looked like!), the ribs are also in good condition.
I would sell them very reasonably.
If interested send an PM.

I got a reply from him yesterday and this time it was his voice,don't know what happened before that. he said he can make them with snaps only and they would be way more expensive. I don't want snaps so I think i'll pass on that one,thanks anyway,cheers !
