I just discovered that my orange '71 has KYBs in front. That explains why it 
seems so stiff going over speed bumps. I will have to dig out some nice good 35 
year old OE shocks and replace these. I'll keep these, however, because they 
may work in the rear, where there is more mass.

I checked, and I have front Cofap E shocks in stock downstairs.
