67 SSRS 350 shocks?
« on: July 01, 2006, 11:20:30 PM »
I have a 67 SSRS 350 with no AC.  What type of shocks would have come with this car?  I was given boxes of NOS KYB gas-a-just shocks, but I think spiral shocks (like for sale by Ricks) would be more original.  Any thoughts or input on how to be as original as possible appreciated.

It came originally with spiral Delco shocks - the repro spiral shocks are allegedly a pretty close match to the originals, but have no stamped-in part numbers or dates like the originals did.

Are those spiral shocks sold by Rick's any good for regular driving?

I don't know - have no idea what level of internal jounce and rebound valving they have (how they're calibrated); you might call D&R and ask them - I think they're the licensee that's having them made.
