        discontinued business which is included as a current liability on

        =================================================================


        LONG-TERM DEBT:

        As of July 1, 1995 the Company was not in compliance with an
        interest coverage covenant contained in the debt agreement with
        holders of the Company's 8% convertible subordinated notes.  The
        Company requested and the note holders granted a waiver of
        compliance with the covenant.  As a result of the waiver of this
        covenant, the interest coverage test becomes effective for the
        quarter which will end September 30, 1995.  Had the Company not
        obtained the waiver of the compliance, the subordinated notes
        could have become currently payable.


        COMMON STOCK:

        An additional 117,944 common shares were issued since December
        31, 1994 in the form of a 5% stock dividend.  Treasury shares
        were reduced during the period by 18,975 shares contributed to
        the Profit Sharing Fund.


        MATERIAL CONTINGENCIES:

        A)   Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risk.  
     
        To meet the financing needs of consumers of its collision repair
        and engine rebuilding products, the Company is, in the normal
        course of business, a party to financial instruments with off-
        balance-sheet risk.  The instruments are guarantees of notes
        payable to financing institutions arranged by the Company.  The
        Company performs credit reviews on all such guarantees.  These
        guarantees extend for periods of up to six years and expire in
        decreasing amounts through 2000.  The amount guaranteed to each
        institution is contractually limited to a portion of the amount
        financed in a given year.  The notes are collateralized by the
        equipment financed.  Proceeds from the resale of recovered
        equipment have generally been 80% to 90% of repurchased notes.

        The maximum credit risk to the Company at December 31, 1994 was
        approximately $3,400,000.  

        B)   Litigation

        The Company is involved in legal proceedings, claims and
        administrative actions arising in the normal course of business. 
        In the opinion of management, the Company's  liability, if any,
        under any pending litigation or administrative proceeding would
        not materially affect its financial condition or operations.

        
        C)   Environmental Claims

        From time to time the Company is identified as a potentially
        responsible party in environmental matters, primarily related to
        waste disposal sites, which contain residuals from the
        manufacturing process that were previously disposed of by the
        Company in accordance with applicable regulations in effect at
        the time of disposal.  Materials generated by the Company at
        these sites have been small and claims against the Company have
        been handled on a de minimis basis. In addition, the Company has
        indemnified purchasers of property previously sold by the Company
        against any environmental damage which may have existed at the
        time of the sale.  In the opinion of management, the Company's
        liability, if any, under any pending administrative proceeding,
        claim, or investigation, would not materially affect its
        financial condition or operations.


        ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
                Condition and Results of Operations

        Results of Operations

        Net sales for the second quarter of 1995 were $17.6 million, up
        1.4% over the same period of 1994.  Sales originating in North
        America were down slightly from 1994 levels to $11.2 million for
        the quarter compared to $11.5 million in the same period a year
        earlier.  European sales rose 8.9% for the quarter from $5.8
        million in 1994 to $6.3 million for the second quarter of 1995. 
        Net sales for two of three business segments were again higher in
        the 1995 quarter than in the comparable quarter of 1994.  

        Net sales for the six months ended July 1, 1995 were 8.7% higher
        than in same period a year earlier.  The 1995 period posted $12.5
        million in net sales compared to $11.1 for the 1994 period.  Net
        sales originating in Europe were up by 12.0% and North American
        net sales rose 7.0%.

        Gross profit margins in North America were 28.1% for the second
        quarter of 1995 compared to 29.2% for the same period of 1994.
        Margins in Europe improved from 48.9% in 1994 to 49.8% for the
        1995 second quarter.  Consolidated gross profit margins were
        essentially unchanged at 35.9% for the second quarter of 1995
        compared to 35.8% for the same period of 1994.  The six month
        results showed an improvement in 1995 with 36.1% gross margin
        compared to 35.6% for the same period of 1994.

        Operating expenses decreased as a percent of net sales, from
        31.9% for the first six months of 1994 compared to 31.4% in the
        comparable period of 1995.  The actual dollars spent in 1995,
        however, were slightly higher than in 1994 primarily due to
        commission expense on the higher sales volume.  Actual expenses
        for each second quarter of 1994 and 1995 were unchanged from $5.5
        million.

        Interest expense rose slightly for the three months ended July 1,
        1995 as a result of rising interest rates and slightly higher
        short-term borrowing. 


        Financial Condition

        Moderate increases in accounts receivable and inventory were
        financed by improved operating results and an increase in short-
        term borrowing.  The long-term borrowing declined during the
        second quarter of 1995.  Continued improved operating results
        along with aggressive inventory management emphasis are expected
        to result in a decline in long-term borrowing.  The Company
        expects its liquidity requirements will be met by cash generated
        from operations and from its credit facilities.  

        Short-term credit facilities in Europe are considered sufficient
        to supplement cash from operating activities to satisfy liquidity
        requirements there.  Changes in short-term borrowing are
        primarily due to seasonal cash usage patterns.

          1.   All references in the Agreement to BankAmerica Business

               "Notwithstanding the foregoing and provided Debtor is not in
               default under this Agreement, Debtor shall be entitled to
               make, adjust and settle claims under any insurance and apply
               the proceeds thereof provided:  (1) the fair market value of
               the Collateral subject to the insurance claim does not
               exceed $100,000.00; and (2) Debtor gives Lender prior

          Hein-Werner Corporation
          July 19, 1995
          Page 3 

          written notice of any proposed insurance settlements exceeding
          $10,000.00; (3) the insurance proceeds are used to replace and/or
          restore the Collateral to the satisfaction of Lender; and (4)
          Lender reasonably determines that Debtor's operation or financial
          condition will materially benefit from restoration or replacement
          of the Collateral.  In the event the fair market value of the
          Collateral, subject to the insurance claim exceeds $100,000.00 or
          Debtor is in default hereunder, Lender shall have the exclusive
          right to make, adjust, settle and apply any insurance claims in
          its sole discretion."



          7.   Subsequent (a) of Section 7. OTHER LOAN PROVISIONS shall be
               added as follows:

               "(a) Participations, Participant Interest Rate.  Debtor
                    recognizes that an integral part of the financing under
                    this Agreement is Lender's participation with
                    Mercantile Business  Credit, Inc. ("Participant"), and
                    Debtor consents to such participation, the extent of
                    which shall be equal to 50% of the advances hereunder
                    not to exceed $6,000,000.00 under this Agreement (or
                    such dollar limit as Lender and Participant may agree). 
                    Such participation is subject to the execution of a
                    participation agreement in a form satisfactory to
                    Lender.  The annual rate of interest charged to Debtor
                    on any advances subject to participation shall be 1.75%
                    plus the rate announced from time to time by Lender as
                    its "prime rate".  Minor deviations above and below
                    such rate of interest will result from costs and fees
                    provided for in this Agreement, timing of the
                    settlement with Participant on any particular day,
                    clearance factors and the time of day of the
                    application of Collections.  The time and manner of
                    settlement of any participation shall be within the
                    sole determination of Lender and Participant.  In the
                    event a participation is terminated for any reason, the
                    rate of interest charged Debtor by Lender on any
                    advances in replacement of the participated advances
                    shall revert to that rate set forth in Section 1. LOANS
                    AND SECURITY INTEREST hereof; and Lender shall not be
                    obligated to fund Participant's prior share of the
                    advances.  Notwithstanding the existence of or lack of
                    any participation, Lender shall not at any time lend
                    funds to Debtor in excess of Lender's lending limits. 
                    Lender may distribute to Participant or potential
                    participants any information Lender may obtain

                    regarding Debtor, the Collateral, this Agreement and
                    the Loan Documents between Debtor and Lender. 
                    Debtoralso agrees to furnish Participant, upon request,
                    the same information Debtor provides to Lender."

          8.   The second sentence of subsection (a) of Section 9.
               TERMINATION shall be amended to read:

                    "While this Agreement in effect, Debtor agrees to
                    borrow funds and pay, at minimum to Lender the Minimum
                    Monthly Charge specified in Section 1.  LOANS AND
                    SECURITY INTEREST of this Agreement until June 30,
                    1997, and from year to year thereafter, unless Debtor
                    notifies Lender that it does not intend to extend the 



                    Agreement for another year by giving Lender written
                    notice at least ninety (90) days prior to the
                    expiration of the then existing term of this
                    Agreement."

          9.   Subsection (d)(5) of Section 12. ADDITIONAL TERMS (as set
               forth as Number 12(d)(5) on Exhibit A) shall be deleted.

          10.  Subsection (i) of Section 12. ADDITIONAL TERMS (as set forth
               as Number 12(i) on Exhibit A) shall be deleted

          In all other respects, the Agreement shall remain unchanged and
          in full force and effect.

          If the above agrees with your understanding and approval, please
          indicate same by signing the original of this letter and
          returning it to the undersigned.  (NOTE:  If you return executed
          documents via facsimile, you must also return the original
          executed documents.  You agree FFS may rely on facsimile
          signatures for all purposes and without any liability to you.) 
          If the preconditions (if any) to this amendment are not satisfied
          or if this amendment letter is not executed and returned to FFS
          on or before August 2, 1994, then the proposed amendments herein
          may be withdrawn by FFS by written notice to you.  The amendments
          set forth herein and any accompanying documents will be deemed
          effective and accepted in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, upon our receipt
          of the executed documents.

       Common shares have been adjusted to give effect to the 5% stock dividend paid January 27,
       1995.

       The $4,500,000 8% Convertible Subordinated Notes are convertible to common shares at a price
       of $6.59 per share after giving effect to the stock dividend  paid January 27, 1995.

       Earnings per common share and common equivalent share were computed by dividing the net
       income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and common stock equivalents
       outstanding during the period.

       Earnings per common share, assuming full dilution, is determined by assuming that at the
       beginning of the period convertible notes were converted at the price per share in effect at
       that time and common share options were excercised.  As to the options, incremental shares
       would be calculated using the treasury stock method, assuming common share purchases at the
       greater of the average market price of the common shares for the period or the ending price
       of the common shares.
