Ana, what would it take to be able to put out a vehicle every once in-a-while?? At what cost would it be profitable for you folk? Really hate to see you have to give up like this when you have such talented artists.

Bill,

I appreciate your (and everyone's) concerns about the possibility of continuing the HB tanks line. Right now, with our economy here, it doesn't sound possible, since the expenses have gone 50% up, and we are letting our people go because we can't keep their salaries updated.

Let's talk about the possibilities for the future in Chicago. What do you think?

Thanks,

Ana

Ana,

When the night is the darkest, the dawn is near. Perhaps you may be out of the model tank making business. I hope not. You, your family, and your employees have a great talent for this business. It is too bad that larger economic forces are at work but I guess that is the nature of the way we do business. Business cycle and all that theory stuff.

Off shore may be a solution: sending the production work to a country with affordable costs. However, when that happens you loss a lot of control over quality and timing.

It is a shame as I have most all of your releases and I would buy more if they were available, even with a price increase to make sure that you stayed in business.

I'm with Michael on this one . . . Ana, you have my word that I will continue to buy any vehicles HB can produce, even if there has to be price increase to get them made.

It sound like Indonesia there..

I don't collect HB but I have seen the beautiful vehicles you produce. Maybe in the future HB will once again will be producing tanks. I assure you that the dawn is coming.
