Welcome from Victoria! Well, since you own a '60, you have a torsion set up in the front right? Or has some one changed that? If it is still the torsion, you can back off the tension to lower the front and put Jeep TJ springs in the rear to get your desired drop. You can usually find the Jeep springs for around $40 or less on craigslist or local 4x4 shops.
I lowered my suburban for $40 and I still maintain a good ride. I didn't back my front torsion off all the way either. The front can get lower.
