Need a source for '60 rear springs

The rear springs on my 60 convertible are a bit soft and the car is riding a bit low in the back.

I assume the number of coils, diameter, gauge and spring rate are in the shop manual.

Anyone have a suggestion on a source for exact replacements?

Thanks,

Brian

brian...you should try googling "eaton springs".com    i believe they are in mich.        another place is "shocks 2 springs".com   i think these folks are in colo.
i have purchased from shocks 2 springs and they did really well for me on my ol' toronado oldsmobile. they even custom made me a pair of the horizontal shocks for the rear of that car. very good service as well.    Terry Cox 26379 ;D
