Does anyone know if the original AMT 1960 Ford Sunliner came with an up top like the 61 did ?

 

My next project is a replica of a local car near me and I like it with the uptop as shown . Ive test fitted a top from my 61 kit and it might work with minimal work around the vent wing area . If thats my only source I'll proceed as planned

Thanks, I have 2 original convertibles neither one had an up top with them or instructions. So I wasn't sure, but doubted it .

 

I just bought an original 61 Up top and will modify it to work on the 60

No, the '60 didn't have an up top.

I always found it strange that some kits were offered with one, & others weren't.

I don't believe AMT started putting them into some of their kits until 1961.

I didn't think it did.  Neither of the 2 builtups I have ...have either a top or boot. So wanted to be sure. 

But with a little work I can make one from a 61 ford sunliner kit work well enough.
