THE BIRTH OF Electron Top
In 1960, out of one of the oldest trim shops in the northeast
"Electron Top", was born. "WE" chose Marbeth Fabrics to do selling for us and enjoyed several years of steady growth. In the early 1960's , Marbeth Fabrics reorganized. Marty Karzmar lost his partner Jack Rosenthal and "Electron Top" was left without a selling organization, so our Dad did the selling. In 1965 Dad bought an airplane, a Cherokee (180) and flew around visiting customers. I'm sure some of you still remember his visits, since most of you are still valued customers. For the next few years he left the manufacturing in the hands of some good key men. However, in the normal evolution of things one key man left Electron and became a very successful marine canvas man. A year or so later our foreman was offered a job as a service manager in a family owned Toyota dealership near his home (an offer he couldn't refuse). So our Dad rolled up his sleeves and went back to the hands on production and pattern making with special attention given to Mercedes and other Imports.
He vowed never to stop working with his hands again and never did. Dad always said :
"The harder he worked the luckier he got!"
Were a certified installer of Electron Tops. Although we carry a few more top brands, we are completely satisfied with ET company. They are the best fit and best lasting. Down below is Electrons story of how they were started. And below that is a few pictures of the quality of the tops. Enjoy!!
