If you are considering swapping 1964 suspension components 
into a 1960 CaveMobile, the front cross member should bolt 
right up. The rear is another story. Keep the 1960 
crossmember and attach the 1964 lower control arms to it. 
That way you can use the '64 rear cross spring. Remember 
that the area behind the rear seat of a 1960 is unique 
since it doesn't need to make room for the hot air heater 
system. While you're at it why not hide a 164 cid engine 
under 1960 sheet metal/air cleaner system for the ultimate 
fooler? Once Larry Claypool had a car like this and it was 
cool! - Caveman Pete
