I'm new to this forum, first post. I believe I've review recent posts for this topic prior to making this inquiry, trying not to waste anyone's time. In 2011 I commissioned a 914 to house a 1996 3.6 motor that survived a collision caused by previously unrecognized antifreeze on the straightaway of my home track. The 911 didn't survive but the motor did. My builder had a rust free, media blasted tub, 4742900276, and built my new track car. It was mated to a 915 transmission with Wevo side shifter and Sheridan body kit. All was well until Sept '23 when it let loose heading toward a turn, before significant braking, and spun into a concrete wall. The transmission mount avulsed a rectangle of Wevo case and crumpled the right rear corner. Things are coming together, the case has been repaired but I'm having trouble tracking down a new Sheridan quarter panel. I've tried 914 Rubber and a few other sources with no luck. I'm looking for a source or ideas. Thanks

Is Roger finally out of business? I know he's been talking about retiring for the last 2 decades. The website is still up and running but i don't see any fiberglass parts: https://sheridanmotorsports.com/ (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) |

Is it that you and 914 Rubber can't work out a deal, or shipping is cost prohibitive? I only ask because he has the molds. If you haven't already, check out this thread:
http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=345265 I think the quarter panels are shown on page 11,....and probably other pages as well. |

The website is still up and running but i don't see any fiberglass parts: https://sheridanmotorsports.com/ (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) We bought Roger's molds and can get you whatever you need. I currently have the complete front end, and a set of rear quarters in Carbon fiber. I can do you one up in fiberglass, but may take a few weeks. Just PM me. We even made a complete hood so you don't have to use Dzus screws and tabs to attach a skin. Pretty sure I even have a headlight delete front hood in stock too! We haven't listed them up yet as we are going through some major housecleaning. -Mark PS also have hoods in fiberglass, Carbon fiber, and GT with balsa and "Porsche" glass.
