You can get the exact same ones from the factory from eaton.  You order them from National Parts Depot  part# 5310-15E  this will get you factory ride height.  They are only $159.95 for the pair.  Here is the link hope this helps.  http://www.npdlink.com/store/index.php?p=catalog&mode=newsearch&search_str=5310-15E

Also if you are ordering new front springs you should really send the leaf springs into Eaton to have them rearched as more than likely they have sag in them from use.

Barbara Eden,
I will bite, what is the significance of your forum handle (other than the obvious).  When I was younger, like many men, I would have killed to be her Master.

Welcome to the forum, just wondered if you knew the full history on Barbara Eden's Mach I?  Did she buy it or was it a gift from the studio?  How long did she own it, and what a great find, she was one of my childhood loves (as everyone else has stated).  Great lady and still looks great too!!  Thank you for sharing...

I got to stand almost next to her on a shuttle bus out at Edwards AFB for one of the early Space Shuttle landings.  Very funny lady and not pretentious.  Several other celebrities were attending this landing including Larry Hagman.

she owned the car since new and drove the car for about 22 years, im not sure if she payed for the car or if it was a gift, the car still has the black california plates and has no rust and all the smog and a/c stuff is still with the car. the car has a jeannie bottle signed by barbara eden, larry haggman and bill daily licenced by sony entertainment.
