Recent purchase, Missing Link

[Mike999]

Received some parts from Missing Link today bought thru eBay. Thought I would put up a quick review.  I got the following: 

--up-top for the AMT '59 Imperial

--base hood for 67-69 AMT/MPC Firebird (no scoops)

--corrected dashboard for the '68-69 Road Runner or GTX. It includes different instrument panel decals, with or without the optional tach and clock.

All the parts look great, with no visible flash or other junk.  The Imperial up-top is VERY thin, no sanding at all should be needed. Looks like a drop-fit on the kit. Only the 2 holes for the hardtop/top boot will need to be filled to use it. 

The hood also looked like a perfect fit on the AMT/MPC '69 Firebird, with a quick test.

I've seen questions about Missing Link on the board from time to time.  Here's a link to his eBay page, showing all his current stuff for sale.

Mike,

Is the up top for the Imperial a convertible top or a hard top? Thanks.

A convertible up-top.  The kit comes with a hardtop and a convertible top boot, so it can be built as a hardtop or a convertible with the top down. Here's a picture of it:

Hey now!

That’s a revelation to me!

I’m betting that this top will likely work on a lot of full sized Mopars from the late 50s and early 60s.

I’ll definitely need to check this out.
