I have always had good luck with KYB Gas-A-Just in old American big iron.
They really bring the car under control and dont spoil the ride. It will
firm it up a little but also eliminate a lot of the roll in turns.
I had a part # from KYB for all 4 shocks for the 56 but it is lost in a 1
foot high pile of notes and papers. I will try to dig it out but an e-mail
or call to KYB might be faster.

I am going to change the 4 shock absorbers on my 55. Any hints or pitfalls.
What kind of shocks should replace the old ones? My car is all original
except for the muffler. I want a better ride instead of original I think?
Any help is appreciated.
