Item 1. Security and Issuer
-------------------
This Amendment No. 6 to Schedule 13D amends the Schedule 13D dated February
15, 1996 (the "February Schedule 13D") of CWAI Consultants Corp. ("CWAI"),
relating to the common stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), of
FORWARD INDUSTRIES, INC., a New York corporation (the "Issuer"). The principal
executive offices of the Issuer are located at 272 Hempstead Turnpike, West
Hempstead, New York 11552.
All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein, have the meaning set
forth in the February Schedule 13D.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
------------------------------------
On June 25, 1996, CWAI became the beneficial owner of an additional 200,000
shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrant, when the Issuer's Chairman issued
a letter to CWAI approving CWAI's purchase of such 200,000 shares as required by
the terms of the Warrant. On July 2 and 9, 1996, CWAI sold in brokers
transactions 20,000 and 227,500 shares of the Common Stock of the Issuer at sale
prices of $4.625 and $3.50 per share, respectively. The sale of such 247,500
shares was covered by a registration statement of the Issuer which the
Securities and Exchange Commission declared effective on March 25, 1996. The
foregoing resulted in CWAI now beneficially owning 200,000 shares of Common
Stock of the Issuer, representing approximately 3.8% of the issued and
outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer.
Item 7. Material to be Filed as Exhibits
