I have a 1977 corvette and I am the original owner and still love the car. the car is running beautifully but the shocks need replacing. A friend who restores corvettes in Fort Lauderdale for a living recommended Monroe sensormatic, or something like that, yet my corvette shop recommends the billstein gas filled shocks. I want the best ride possible. I am not into performance but I just enjoy driving the car around town. I don't mind spending the money, if it is really worth it. Please advise.
