Max Merritt and Kanter have replacement shocks but for aftermarket there is a Napa offering in the parts x-ref

I believe all the Clipper based bodies thru 50 had the same shock mounting with only the valving in the shock being different between models. According to the entries in the parts x-ref the Napa 94080 would be a fit for the Clipper based bodies but undoubtedly the valving would be different than original spec.

There are mounting specs for the 94080 in the xref and also the Napa website so you might compare to what is now on your car to verify fit.
