 After much dremeling, grinding, cutting, drilling,sanding and fabrication of new steel and aluminum brackets and shrouding I finally got my new Sheridan body installed. Very happy with the fit, finish and quality of Rogers parts. Now I just have to take it all apart again and paint it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

Hey man, Looks great, since the last time I saw it, persistance pays off.
Take your time with the paint, and you'll have a nice finished product. What color are you going with? Tony |

How did you do the turn signals? I didn't think his fenders had the holes cut for the buckets. Is there a trick to that?

If you guys have a v8 get to gether, you should drive the Lyons to Estes loop. We used to live up there when I first put mine together. What a road! Put deer whistles up in the intake, they really work!

Query.
If I plan on permanently bonding one of these front ends onto my 914 does anyone have opinions on the best way and where I should trim my fenders to minimize cracking, delaminating, and best hide bonding lines? |
