Whole sets (frame and all) are reproed for buckets, but are costly. Most of the Olds parts houses have them.
Finding a good used set might be more economical, but then there is the refinishing and shipping...
What is wrong with yours?

I've got a buddy who works in an upholestry shop. I'll ask him if they still have a source for individual springs. One trick he's shown me is running a section of stiff wire perpendictular to the springs to tie them all together. If you only have one weak one this will help spread the weight out. John
