I was curious how easy it is to swap a 4-spd transmission from a 1963 chevy c60 into a 1959 chevy viking c60? they both have straight 6's. Is it just bolt up or a different bellhousing?

Hy hardy541, if everything is stock (the way they left the factories) then they should be the same transmission (SM420), so they should be a drop in swap, hope that helps.
