If you measure the stud and the damper eye to get the sizes I sure you should be able to get bushes. These are fairly easy to fit with a length of stud and a couple of large washers, with little lube to draw the bushes into the damper eye. There's loads listed on ebay :-)

Take the old ones out (with a vice and some sockets), measure the hole and compare with this: http://www.superflex.co.uk/datasheets/SuperFlex%20Universal%20shock%20eye%20bushes(3).pdf

Maybe number sf0814p will fit?
Stainless pipe 16x2mm is standard available and fits the 2CV shock absorber bolt perfectly.
