How do I know if my shocks / struts are bad ?

With that many miles on the OE's it's probably time for new ones. I agree, get a good thrust angle alignment and make sure your tire pressures are right.

I added an Eibach Pro kit about 70K miles ago, and have been running my stock shocks, and struts with them the whole time. I kinda thought that may not be good for the stock parts. My car seems to be wondering on the lines in the road so I don't know if I just need alingment or more - My car feels firm still, but wonders too much in the highway.
Any suggestions ?

Yeah I'm at 90K miles now, but it's all on a smooth riding highway to and from work every day. What do KYB's runs ? I got 4 - 3 way adjustible KYB (shocks) for like $30 ea for my 68. Any suggestions where to get them cheap. I heard somewhere Edelbrock has some good ones out that are inexpensive too. Any specific for my springs ? What'a a good drag racing set up that I don't have to spend a ton of cash on ? Of course I'll start with checking tire pressure, and alingment. What is out tire pressuere suposed to be ? 35 PSI ?
