I didn't know him well at all but I ran into Sherwood many times over the years at local shows/events. RIP.

I met Sherwood years ago when I first bought my 914...almost 20 years ago now. He invited me to the local "Cars and Coffee" event and was on his mailing list for many years now.

Just a good person and a big loss here in So Cal in the P car world.


Prayers are with him and his family he will be missed.

I'm pretty sure he did have a black 914 ...

...I can't believe that I'm writing this as Sherwood, my crew at the shop + myself were all such good friends.
His service will be at Forest Lawn, Glendale CA. on November 15, 2021, at 2:30 pm.
God Speed Sherwood

Unbelievable Sherwood posted here two months ago selling a new 10pc gray carpet kit. I drove out to his cars and coffee event in La Canada to pick it up. What a kind gentleman we talked Porsche 914/911 over donuts and coffee for two hours. God speed my friend I will keep that gray carpet in my car for the rest of my days.
