Probably really doesn't matter these days. I'd just get the cheapest that carries a lifetime warrenty and put them on.....Better yet, just tell me where to come pick that old junk car up.....
 
Haha! 390, auto, 4 door, factory air, 69,756 orig
miles, never been rusted, has original exhaust on
it yet!
 
The Galaxie is a nice looking car. A lot more class than the boxes they build today. I've never been able to tell any difference in shocks. I just use what ever is on sale.
 
I have bilstein monotube shocks on just about everything I own that requires shocks and I like them. They ride good and last a good long while.

Cheapo twin and triple tube shocks fade quickly and generally are shot within a year or so.
 
I use the Monroe Sensa trac struts and shocks on my Cougar. I had a 1963 Mercury with the 390 engine and Breezeway rear window. Drove it to FL in 1967. Hal

Take the Monroe part number from Rockauto and plug it into amazon.com. Same price, free shipping on my struts. Saved me a few bucks...

I'd go with Monroes with a lifetime warranty. Never had any trouble getting the warranty honored, even after 10 years and 100,000 miles. Good shocks too.
