Re: 1960 short stepside
That's cool, it will look good. Mine touches if i lift the front and leave the back slammed but the 20's to the bottom of the fenders keep it from going any farther.

Re: 1960 short stepside
check out my steering wheel i just picked up. its a 1961 chevy impala, the clicker for the turn signals is in the same place, and the horn meckanizm fit perfect, so even the horn works.
