[Tigers] Shocks

Rick only had 2 front shocks at Sunbeam Specialties.
Classic Garage sent me this response:

Sorry, we are out and have no plans to order a new production run. We 
need to order a minimum of 50 of each shock for Koni to make them. 
Unless a club or other organization wants to commit -  with deposits, 
to  more than half of the run, this is not happening. Used to be we 
received lots of queries and had deposits for a fair number before we 
ordered, even with that, it took nearly 5 years to sell 25 cars worth. 
You are only the second inquiry we have had since we ran out in 2020. 
Does not look like there is enough demand any longer.
Good luck,
Ann
