Vehicle from 60s I turned behind abruptly (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

minicab

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'vehicle' is the definition.

'from 60s i turned behind abruptly' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'from' could be 'in' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'in' is found within the answer.
'i' could be 'a' and 'a' is present in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for minicab that I've seen before include "Hired vehicle" , "Car used as taxi" , "Type of taxi" , "transport" , "It can't be hailed in the street" .)
