I was looking through a post about fender flare types and came across a post by an inactive member that had a very nice looking car with a body kit similar to an AIR SCCA body kit, but with smoother lines and less angles.
Here is the link to the post: http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?s=&...t&p=2517829 The entry by the poster was: "I'm a sbc and I use one of Sheridan's standard widebody's, but my next build will use Rogers widest wide-body. See image" (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/post-15144-1502942704.jpg) I am currently planning an LS3 swap in my '73, and while I was originally planning on just keeping the wide fiberglass fender flares already on my car, I really like the look of this body and wanted to investigate where to get it. Does anyone have info on the maker of this design? Thank you in advance! Brian |

The car belongs (belonged?) to Scott Yeaman from Yeaman Auto Body (now defunct) and the body panels are Roger Sheridan's widebody design. I don't think Roger still makes body parts, i vaguely recall someone buying his 914 molds years back. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) |

Ok, thank you.
I called 914rubber about the molds, and they told me that right now, they are not making any of these Sheridan parts. I was disappointed hearing this, so that is why I looked into the AIR SCCA parts that look similar, but again, have more angles and aren't as smooth to the eye as these Sheridan parts as. Does anyone have an idea for another company that might make parts like the Sheridan wide body kit? Thanks, Brian |
