A friend of mine has tube shocks on the front and rear of his 67 AH
Sprite. The shocks are from a Vette and are short. The car handles great
and the ride is decent. He fabricated the supports himself and I have
the plans that he drew up and used. If there were enough response, I
might consider offering the plans for a nominal fee (e.g. $10). Is
anyone interested?
