Gents,

Sorry, Shelby just called and so I sold one to Shelby. They are seriously thinking about taking the others. We have run into a strange situation where the dollar is falling so our prices are going up. When the Euro first came out, it traded at 0.82 cents--today it passed $1.50! I almost passed out. Along with this, Gerry and Fritz in Europe are selling cars like crazy because of the low dollar and so they are sucking up all of our production in Poland for customers in Europe. We are facing the first shortage of cars in our 13 year history.

Very soon we are going to have to adjust our prices to reflect the fall of the dollar and our cost increases.

David
