Re: Rare GM race shocks?
I need them, so, QUIT bidding on them!! I have the matched rears on a car already. Found them at a local swap meet about four years ago in the same condition.

Re: Rare GM race shocks?
I have some spiral drag shocks with Delco part numbers on them, dated '68 or '69! They were too wide at the bottom to fit my lower A-arms though, what to do with them??

Re: Rare GM race shocks?
I used to have 90/10s on the front and 50/50s on the back but they sure did'nt look like these. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif[/img]

Re: Rare GM race shocks?
Interesting. I've never seen these before. But they look more like drag shocks than road race shocks.

Re: Rare GM race shocks?
Sure can Joe. They're on the car I'm taking to Vettefest in November. It would be kinda hard to get a decent pic of them mounted in the car.

Re: Rare GM race shocks?
I thought with the different valves that are interchangable that this setup would have been made for road racing applications.
SIXTIES hope I didn't blow this for you! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif[/img] Do you have instructions for the rear shocks you have? That should clear up GM's intensions when they produced these.

Re: Rare GM race shocks?
'67 Nickey/Thomas Camaro. Yes, they're chrome. The instructions refer to adding oil to provide the different rates, I think form 50/50 to 90/10.
