About a year ago, I paid $108.00 (including shipping) for 4-NOS
oil-filled 'Goerlich' brand shocks for my A-body.  Good folks;
free returns.

My old catalogue gives the following prices:

     Original type - $39.50 ea.
     Super heavy duty - $59.90 ea.
     Any gas charged type - $49.50 ea.

Good luck and let us know what you eventually turn up.
