The "modern" drive cups didn't surface until 1966. There are plenty of 4-speed trannies with the older rubber donuts, '64s and '65s, plus all years of the 2-stroke SAAB 95 ('59 thru '68).
If you get a '65 or newer tranny for your old car, you also need to change over a few clutch parts and mod the bell housing slightly, since the clutch became hydraulic in '65. Easiest is to get a '59 thru '64 tranny.
And, it IS possible to keep the old steering column, but your shift pattern will become inverted - reverse,1 and 2 towards the dash; and 3-4 towards the steering wheel. Perfectly driveable once one gets used to it (if not very elegant) :-)
