I'd be willing to bet they're the same as 73-77 A-body bushings.
Those are available from Fusick under p/n BM737K.

Tamraz has sets for the old caprices. You could use those. That's what I did.
OR
Haulin' *** motorsports makes solid aluminum ones, just let them know the application and they'll probably lathe them right up for you.

Ok J...

I'm looking at Tamraz... But I can only find 1965-1970 stuff...

Hmmm...

Yeah, the 65-70 caprice will work. Just shim with washers so they're all the same height if you get a pair of oddballs in the kit.
Everyone somehow seems to make cars more complicated than they really are.

It's just a piece of metal and a piece of rubber. You could use pieces of 2x4 or solid plastic if you wanted to.

We just 1" allthread the body to the frame when we derby them.
