The Spax catalog in the classic section shows a listing for the Sunbeam Tig=
er 64-68, in the $150 range per shock front and rear. They appear to be si=
ngle adjustable so rebound and compression change together.
I got Spax shocks for my car back in the 60=E2=80=99s. Replaced a set of K=
oni shocks. Didn=E2=80=99t like the damping characteristics quite as well,=
but the ability to adjust on the car was revolutionary. Soften up, drive =
to an autocross or cross country, get to the event, turn them up and compet=
e, post event set down for the street and drive home. Many competition car=
s weren=E2=80=99t trailered in those years. A great ability to accommodate=
street comfort and autocross performance. Or to adjust to your individual=
preferences. My set are still on the car, which exited regular competitio=
n in the late 90=E2=80=99s, but my two SCCA autocross national championship=
s in 1974 and 1975 were with the Spax shocks. Would be worth exploring if =
you need shocks. They also might custom make a set of double adjustable sh=
ocks if you were interested.
