Folks, I found the prices of new front shocks crazy for my 69, I drive my classic cars maybe 100 miles a
year and never go over 60mph, I do not need fancy expensive shocks for my front end. my car
came with no front shocks (basket case). Someone out there must know of shock that is cheap and
does the same job. (my tr6 uses mustang two shock at 1/4 the price). Thanks Mike.

Just ordered up Girling front shocks for my S1 from David Manners today at £86 a side. Very few suppliers have the Girlings in stock at the mo. Seems pretty cheap to me
if not, do more miles and drive faster to justify them

Guess I should have mention that I'm in Canada, each one is !50.00 plus shipping/customs..and 15% tax,
so I'm looking at over $400.00 for the çheap' ones. I bought shocks from rock auto for my vette, $23.00
each. that is why I was asking. thanks Mike.
