I'd leave it to preserve the originality in the look and the feel, it's going to decrease the value of the car as well
You can try these guys though, they should know this topic and the vintage cars up and down. I'd say your going to need more than just springs, as the shocks wouldn't be valved properly if you change springs only and the handling/tire wear would go down the drain

I agree -- lowering it will only hurt handling and value. The suspension is designed to be that height. Sometimes previous owners put shorter sidewall tires on that make it look higher, but using standard tire sizes (or for TRX cars, using later 328 wheels) makes all the difference.
You can use 360 wheels, which changes the stance, but won't hurt resale or handling.
