Les; that would be from a 60-62? it would work but is not required for this as he doesn't have the clearance problems that the 60 -62 has on the drivers side.
there are people though looking for that setup for 60-62s frequently.
he just mainly needs to make a mounting bracket on the drivers side and modify his linkage rod to fit
