Bilstein Shocks for 67 VC

Hello,
I've been trying to search / cross reference / locate Bilstein rear shocks for a 67 VC with no success. The fronts are available.
I found out the VC rear shocks are different from the Cutlass.
As a second choice, KYB has a listing for the VC front & rear. Couldn't find anything with Koni.
Just wondering if anyone has done this.
Thanks,
Ed

Right, as Joe stated.
So I'm wondering if anyone has experimented / found a cross reference and had success with a Bilstein Shock for the rear.

KYB claims that their shock for the Vista rear is 20.28" extended and 12.01" compressed. In looking at the Bilstein universal shocks, they have several with a stud and an eyelet. P/N 25-331882 is 19.22" extended and 11.77" compressed. P/N 331899 is 21.19" extended and 12.80" compressed.
