I recently replaced all the shocks on my '75. It had the stock Boges in the front and some leaking, tired red Koni's in the back. I also installed slightly stiffer than stock 100lb springs.
Because I have 65-series tires on alloy wheels, my ride was already stiff enough that I didn't want to add any more stiffness. Hence the near-stock rear springs and replacement shocks. I went with new Boges all around, and am quite happy with the ride and handling. I wouldn't want the car any stiffer than it is, as it already rides like a truck!
Also, if you're car has the optional sway bars, that's more reason to consider stock shocks. Your car will already corner quite flat without stiffer shocks and springs.
