    I think they where Gabriel Red Ryder shocks, back in the early 70's I use to drill a hole in them and take out 1/2 the oil. (front shocks) on the race car..
    Cheapy 90/10's kind of....like $3.88 each if I remember right...

    Not sure who made the OEM's back then, but they would not have manufacturer's decals on them.

    NOS replacements in the 70's were red, but I don't recall what the stickers said on them. I'll try to remember to dig one out for a pic.
