When I was referring to non functioning shocks i wasn't meaning worn out. I've seen shocks that sat so long that they wouldn't move. But as I stated I'm thinking too stiff springs. When it's jacked up do the wheels/tires move downward? If so you might try adjusting the spring adjuster to it's lowest setting to see if you get some motion when it's on the ground. You said you looked up the spring rate but didn't post what they were. Trans Am Mustangs (which were far heavier cars) used 720lbs per inch springs so you should need less. They were of course very heavily sprung and not your daily driver ride.
