ITEM  2.     ACQUISITION  OR  DISPOSITION  OF  ASSETS

The  registrant filed on February 12, 1999 a current report on Form 8-K relating
to  its acquisition of MRB, Inc., a Georgia corporation d/b/a Tomahawk Truck and
Trailer  Sales;  Tomahawk  Truck  &  Trailer Sales, Inc., a Florida corporation;
Tomahawk  Truck and Trailer Sales of Virginia, Inc., a Virginia corporation; and
Tomahawk  Truck  and  Trailer  Sales  of  Missouri, Inc., a Missouri corporation
(collectively  "Tomahawk")  and  an amendment on Form 8-K/A dated April 13, 1999
for the purpose of providing the financial statement and information required by
Item  7  of  the Form 8-K.  The purpose of this Form 8-K/A Amendment No. 2 is to
provide  revised  pro  forma financial statements and a description of the total
purchase  price relating to the subject transaction pursuant to the requirements
of  Item  301(d)  of  Regulation  S-B.

Chancellor  Asset  Management  Inc.  ("CAM"),  a  wholly owned subsidiary of the
Company,  entered  into a Management Agreement, dated August 1, 1998, as amended
August  17,  1998,  with  Tomahawk.  The  Management Agreement provided CAM with
effective  control of Tomahawk's operations as of August 1, 1998.  Subsequently,
CAM  acquired  all of the outstanding capital stock of Tomahawk from the two (2)
sole  shareholders  (the  "Selling  Shareholders")  pursuant to a Stock Purchase
Agreement  (the  "Agreement")  dated  January  29,  1999.

Tomahawk  is engaged in a similar line of business as CAM.  Tomahawk retails and
wholesales  used  transportation  equipment,  primarily  tractors  and trailers.
Tomahawk  operates  five  (5)  retail  centers  in  Conley,  Georgia;  Richmond,
Virginia;  Pompano  Beach, Florida; Orlando, Florida; and Kansas City, Missouri.
Tomahawk also operates its wholesale division from the Conley, Georgia facility.
Tomahawk  will operate as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, coordinating
many  operations  with  the  Company  to  achieve  operating  efficiencies  and
synergies.

The  purchase price paid by CAM consisted of 4,500,000 shares of Common Stock of
Chancellor  (valued at $.96 per share) and future cash consideration pursuant to
an  earn-out  (the  "Earn-Out")  as provided for in the Agreement.  The Earn-Out
provides  that  each of the Selling Shareholders will be paid an amount equal to
seven  and one-half percent (7.5%) of the Adjusted Pre-Tax Earnings of Tomahawk.
The  Earn-Out,  which  is  paid  on a quarterly basis, begins in the fiscal year
ended December 31, 1999 and ends in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004.  In
connection  with  this Agreement, CAM loaned the Selling Shareholders a total of
$500,000  pursuant  to certain promissory notes payable that are payable in full
on  January  29,  2004.

The  Agreement  also: i) nominates one of the Selling Shareholders as a director
of  Chancellor's Board of Directors; ii) elects both of the Selling Shareholders
as  directors  of  CAM's  Board  of  Directors;  iii)  provides  for  Employment
Agreements  for  the  Selling Shareholders over a period of five years with base
salaries  of  $200,000  per  annum;  iv) prohibits the Selling Shareholders from
competing  against CAM or Tomahawk, or soliciting former employees and customers
of Tomahawk; v) provides for Tomahawk to lease from the Selling Shareholders the
Conley,  Georgia facility at fair market value rents of approximately $8,500 per
month;  and vi) provides CAM an option to purchase from the Selling Shareholders
the  Conley,  Georgia  facility  for  an  amount  not  to  exceed  $950,000.

This  transaction  has  been  recorded in accordance with the purchase method of
accounting.  As  a  result  of  the  effect on the transaction of the Management
Agreement,  as  amended,  the designated date of this transaction for accounting
purposes  is  August  1, 1998.  In connection with this transaction, CAM assumed
liabilities  of  approximately  $6,414,000  and  incurred  acquisition  costs of
approximately  $3,405,000.  The  excess of the purchase price over net assets of
approximately  $7,695,000  has  been  recorded  in  intangibles.  Approximately
$154,000  of  intangibles  has  been  amortized  as  of  December  31,  1998.
