Default Predictions...

..so on 3-24-2002 I posted in the thread "Ford rescinds AC's use of "Cobra" trademark...

Scott,

Even 'ol CS isn't that stupid. Actually he did not "save" AC the first time. AC would have survived as a manufacturer of the golf cars, invalid carriages and truck bodies that really were the core of the positive financial end of the business.

When the next receivership comes to AC (and it will, rest assured) I will bet the buyer will come from a country that has "South" in it's name and is known as a "Super" person. One guy from the same country has put AC into its' present incantation and position. I would expect that he will be aquiring the name and none of the products per se.

Just my 2 cents.

Rick

Was my prediction "inside information", nope, just common sense and knowing what was going on. The CVA ( a form of receivership) came in June of 2002 and Jimmy steped in around September...
