Shaun,
I own a '61 and personally I think that the 60 and 61 bodystyle is the best. The headlights and grill look much better and so on. I think that torsion bars are great because it made lowering the front end of my truck SUPER easy. I guess that if you haven't bought one yet you still have time to choose. I would definitely get a 60-62 because the wraparound windhield and knee knocker doors kick butt. I guess I am not much help, good luck and welcome!
