Now, if some "..enterprising person.." could take the LPG conversion kit information the Surf Shop was forwarded half a year ago - and drive down the PCH to San Diego for a few hours - maybe they could make a deal with Doug Norman to promote LPG sales via CARH equipped vehicles......!!! ( I realize that is expecting a great deal on such bloody short notice - since it's obviously not on the schedule ) Reference: CARH: To: jmhollen who started this subject From: John A.

(OTCBB: CARH), has opened corporate and sales offices in Beijing, China. Should everything go as planned for the El Cajon, CA-based company, it will eventually end up making a $40 million sale in China through its new office. Under its Master License Program, WTA sells licenses to third world countries that allows them to set up factories for the manufacture its Worldstar vehicles. Company founder, Doug Norman describes the Worldstar as a hybrid between a Baja 1000 racecar and a pickup truck. WTA serves as an “economic engine” and platform for developing countries to build their own cars in local factories using semi-skilled labor, Norman said. “A one-car-a-day plant in the Philippines supports 1,500 people in the community,” he said. To ensure legitimacy and feasibility of the Worldstar factories, WTA partners with high-level authorities such as the heads of regional governments and military organizations. The pending $40 million WTA master license sale in China is, for example, expected to be shared between three different Chinese entities – the military, the automobile authority and the Minzu ethnic groups, Norman said. The company believes that the Worldstar is ideal for countries that don’t already have an automobile manufacturing industry of their own, Norman said. The absence of tariffs, its simplistic design and the low cost of labor all help to keep the cost of the vehicles down, he said. Third world countries need vehicles for their growth and development, but typically end up paying high prices for foreign-made vehicles designed for first world terrain and taste. High on toughness and longevity, but low on sophistication and luxury, the Worldstar is designed specifically for emerging economies like China. “Every car company in the world builds a car for America,” Norman said. “Ours is designed for the third-world. Americans go for luxury; (third world) people just want to get their goods from one place another. (The third world) is the largest untapped market in the world for vehicles and nobody is addressing it. We’re the only people in the world that have a product that works in third world countries.” WTA began selling its master licenses three months ago after a four-year research-and-development period. In addition to the China deal, the company has ongoing operations in the Philippines and Nigeria and pending master license sales in South and Central America, Fiji and eight African countries, Norman said. The company is debt-free and has generated thus far $25 million in sales, he added. WTA will split its stock 4-1 at the end of the August, Norman said, and following completion of the $40 million sale in China, the company expects an imminent move to a more established trading board like the NASDAQ.
