Running gear, yes. Sheet metal, no. The grill, hoods, running light panels, trim, etc. are different. You could put a different front end (59 or 60) on your 58, but not piecemeal.

The '57-'58 year models will completely interchange w/ each other & the '59-'60 will completely interchange w/ each other.

But the front sheet metal will Not interchange between each of the 2 year models bracketted together piece meal.

The '57-'58 have the Same Hood using the Same Shield Badge but different Side Flashes, Vallance & Fenders that are cut for the Round Turn Signals. The only thing different sheet metal wise is the Single Headlight Grille on the '57 & the Intro of the Dual Headlight Grille on the '58.

The '59 has a Redisigned Deeper Beaked Hood w/ a front cut-out w/ mesh for the lettering, narrower Grille, Vallance & Fenders that have the New Rectangular Turn Signals.

The '60 was Redesigned even Deeper Beaked Hood w/ 3 Point Kings Crown Shield Badge w/ slots cut on either side, narrower Grille, Vallance & Fenders for the Rectangular Turn Signals.
