    I think its all the new guy and the people he hired/promoted. He definately righted the ship. At least from an investor's perspective. Still wouldn't want to work there tho.

    True. I would not have been upset to see another mega bite the dust. The drivers would have been ok though, eventually.

    I would of been very upset. That was every penny of my next(and most likely last) petercar project truck budget sitting out there. If they went belly up id have probably gotten really really drunk and then cried for a month. But i had to risk it. You have any idea how much chrome cost? A set of stacks can be 12 grand. Hodgebuilt fenders are 2500 for cheapies.

    Haven’t heard anything about that; but I doubt we are actually doing any purchasing while we are reorganizing.....

    I don’t know for sure; but having been with Celadon thru this whole reorganization.. I really doubt we would be in any position to acquire any other companies........
     
    Bean Jr. Thanks this.
