David, you will have more luck posting that in the trader forum.
But welcome to this forum.... come back and visit us often.
Here's the link for reproduction UK version of the hardtop

and here is the supplier to Moss (the old Parish top)

If you can't find one locally, I have one that I'm than willing to part with. Needs a coat of paint and maybe some new rubber. I don't believe it's the factory style, if that's important to you. PM me for a picture.
This may be a little off topic, but which is the better hard top to get, the parrish/smoothline or the snugtop? Are replacement rubber seals, etc available for both??

That Smoothline would have to be one of the ugliest sins you could inflict on a poor old B.
I am trying to find a photo of the J & S hardtop that I had on my Mk1 40 years ago.
It was then, and still (IMHO) the best MGB hardtop ever made.
Actually, I kind of like the smoothlines because they look more like the rest of the car: no straight lines. However, I did look up some pictures of your J&S, and you may be right. It looks rrrrreally good. It actually reminds me of the GT, which makes more sense than anything. Here's a site with a gallery of all the types pf hardtops that were/are made.

I have always had a soft spot for the Bermuda hard top, not everybody's cup of tea though!
