On a car that old, pretty much everything is suspect. Shocks you say are new, but did you use the good ones (Bilstein)? Time to start inspecting suspension items. Rubber parts are probably not in good shape if they're original. Sway bar end links are another thing to look at. Spring failures are less common, but have occurred. A broken sway bar (or two) is another unlikely but possible thing.

These aren't sports cars, but when properly sorted they do handle much better than most American cars of that era.
