Please note that the colour names refer to internal John Skinner Ltd names, not necessarily the names Austin Healey originally used for these colours.
Due to industry-wide inconsistencies in production and record-keeping, it is widely accepted that the interpretation of original shades varies depending on who you ask. As a result, John Skinner Ltd offers multiple “original” shade options for you to make your final choice from. Below is a list of these accepted “original” colour choices that John Skinners can offer for your Healey restoration project.
Black PVC
Dark Blue PVC
Sand PVC
Beige PVC
Off White PVC
White PVC
Black Mohair
Dark Blue Mohair
Camel Mohair
Beige Mohair
CUSTOM COLOURS/COMBINATIONS ALSO AVAILABLE
Note that we can also offer a variety of custom “non-original” shades if you prefer a more bespoke finish. For a full and complete list of options please view our Materials & Colours library.
SAMPLES/COLOUR CONFIRMATIONS
As part of the ordering process, we will arrange for samples to be sent for final confirmation – so browse and shop with complete peace of mind, knowing that we will guide you through step-by-step with all the information you require.
Please note that all materials are subject to colour shade differences between production batches. There may be subtle differences in colour shading between sample cuttings and final production material.
What materials are available?
We can manufacture the all weather equipment parts in either PVC Hooding or Mohair Canvas Hooding.
What material is original for this model of car?
PVC Hooding was original for the Austin Healey models. Some cars may have left the factory with Mohair versions for special order requests.
Do you offer different qualities of materials?
There are different materials available on the market – but JSM only offers two options in order to guarantee our customers products made in only the highest quality raw materials. For the PVC Hooding we only use the top of the range “British Everflex PQ” (Premium Quality) version, and for the Mohair we use the Deluxe Mohair Canvas (“DMC”). Note that “Stayfast” Mohair Canvas (“SMC”) is widely used in this industry – but we prefer not to use this as it is a thinner and slightly less premium version of DMC.
Is this Tonneau Cover edged?
Yes, this Tonneau Cover features pre-sewn binding (edging) around the outside edges of the Tonneau, as per original specifications for these models.
Does it include a pre-sewn steering wheel pocket?
Yes; this cover includes a pre-sewn pocket to house the steering wheel on the driver’s side of the car.
How is this Tonneau secured to the car at the rear?
The BN4 and BT7 models used Tenax fixings to attach the Tonneau cover around the rear circumference of the cover.
Are all the fixings included?
We supply a bag of loose fixings, including 14 x female Tenax (2pc) fixings, and 9 x female Turn Button (2pc) fixings. We do not include any male bodywork fixings as part of this particular kit. Please see our Handbook area for more details.
What is the small square tab sewn to the underside left and right edges for?
This is the Turn-Button fixing tab. These should be used to keep the shape and rigidity of the Tonneau Cover when the left to right support rail is erected behind the Front Seats, and your Tonneau is part-open and turned back. This fixing tab helps to avoid the material from flapping around in the wind.
Does this Tonneau Cover include the pre-sewn pockets for the longitudinal stiffeners?
Yes. these are pre-sewn to the underside of the cover, as per original specifications. Note that we do not include replacement metal stiffeners.
There is a flap running from left to right in the middle of the underside of the cover – what is this for?
We sew a retaining flap to the underside of the Tonneau Cover, as per original specification. This is used for looping around, and fixing to, the horizontal transverse support rail, to assist in keeping the shape and rigidity of the cover behind the front seats.
Does the zipper have a flap to cover and protect it?
These Tonneau Covers are manufactured and supplied as per original specifications, and so they do not include a zip cover flap. However, if you wish, we can add one to the Tonneau for an extra £30 (+ VAT). Please explicitly state this request when placing your order in the comments section provided.
Due to the range of products we offer, and our worldwide customer base, we can only calculate an accurate shipping cost once Your Enquiry/Quote has been received by Jonathon. As there is no payment required at this stage – use our Quote Builder in full confidence, with zero commitment to purchase – and send us your Quotation request for your interior trim requirements; and we will get in touch directly with you with an updated Quote, which will include the shipment costs.
In the meantime, basic guideline shipping costs are outlined below.
(For all non-UK shipments – the final price per box depends on the size of the box – which is dictated by the items in your final selection)
UK: £10.50 – £30 per box
Europe & European Union: £20 – £150 per box
North America & Canada: £28.50 – £160 per box
Rest of World: £50.00 – £400 per box

🇪🇺 EU Shipments / Brexit 🇪🇺
As of January 2021, the UK is no longer part of the European Union (EU). As a result, several changes have been implemented which affects how EU based customers now purchase products from the UK.
It is not as problematic and complicated as people say. John Skinner Ltd sends hundreds of shipments to the EU; and rarely do we encounter any issues at all; and this is due to us working closely with our shipping agents to offer two choices that help to simplify the process for you.
You now have 2 Options you can choose from for shipping John Skinner products to the EU:
============
Option 1: Standard International Shipping
This is the ‘standard’ method of purchasing items from the UK, since the UK left the EU (‘Brexit’).
You will pay John Skinner Ltd for 1) the parts ordered, and 2) the shipping cost to ship from the UK to your address.
You will NOT be charged UK VAT (20% Tax). (Before Brexit, you would have been charged UK VAT @ 20%).
Once your parts ship, you will be contacted directly by our shipping agent (normally DHL), who will request payment from you for 1) Your Local Country Tax based on the value of the John Skinner Invoice, 2) a small admin fee (normally around €15). Once this is paid, your goods are released from customs and delivered to your address.
You will NOT be charged any Duties/Tariffs. All the parts we supply are made by John Skinner Ltd in the UK, and we provide all the correct paperwork & documentation and sign declarations to ensure that no Duties/Tariffs apply to our goods. (This is often the part that most people get confused by with Brexit – they assume that anything they buy from the UK incurs Duties/Tariff charges – our products are 0% Duty/Tariff rated).
Note that this shipping option is the default choice offered when Jonathon is raising your initial Quote; if you wish to discuss the second option (see below) – then just mention this to Jonathon once he has made direct contact with you about your enquiry.
============
Option 2: Prepaid Duties & Taxes *** VERY POPULAR OPTION ***
To simplify the purchasing process, you can choose our Prepaid Duties & Taxes option.
This process is becoming the most popular option for our EU customers as it makes everything very simple and straightforward, akin to how it was before the UK left the EU.
We will calculate & include all applicable import duties, taxes, and customs fees in your order total – and everything is paid up front to John Skinner Ltd.
Once the parts are ready and are shipped – you will NOT pay any additional costs, or have to do anything more – your order will be delivered to your address as normal. Our shipping agent (normally DHL) pays the Local Country Tax on behalf of John Skinner Ltd and they Invoice us for this later. This ensures that you won’t face any unexpected charges upon delivery, and your order will clear customs smoothly and quickly.
You can enjoy a more streamlined shopping experience with this option; like Brexit never even happened.
If you are interested in this option, please let Jonathon know once he has contacted you directly with your updated Quote via email; and he can update the Quote accordingly to reflect this choice.
