So in the middle of doing things I have been recreating a build sheet.  The car is a 70 383 with a hemi suspension, A31 option.  What shocks would these have?

Most accurate looking shocks that I have found are the Gabriel Classics.  I got mine from Rock Auto.

I've been watching for some NOS ones, there may be some out there.  ::)

I've also painted the Monroe's.

What would be on the build sheet or what would be on the car?

IMO, if you plan on driving it at all, get some modern gas shocks and paint them to look stock. I wouldn't even consider an NOS shock and an OEM style oil shock is not much better unless your driving is limited to loading and unload  it off the trailer to park it in the show field.

It sounds like he is recreating the build sheet to me, not buying shocks. So I don't know.

If you want to drive your car, buy Konis and paint them semi gloss black. Other good ones are Bilsteins.
