Default Bristol lever type shock absorbers

I have acquired a 400 with the original Bristol lever type shock absorbers/dampers front and rear. I am considering options to either keep these or go telescopic.

I would prefer to keep the original Bristol equipment to preserve the car's originality but have concerns about their maintainability, reliability and spares availability.

Any observations/advice gratefully received.
Many thanks

Superfine
