          aging of all Seller Receivables reflected on the August 31
          Balance Sheet and the September 30 Balance Sheet.  All
          outstanding Seller Receivables reflected on the financial
          statements delivered to Buyer are, net of the financial
          statement reserves applicable thereto, due and valid claims
          against account debtors for goods or services delivered or
          rendered, collectible in full within thirty (30) days of
          delivery and subject to no defenses, offsets or
          counterclaims.  All Seller Receivables arose in the ordinary
          course of business.  Except as set forth upon Schedule 1.2D,
          no Seller Receivables are subject to prior assignment,
          claim, lien or security interest.  Except in the ordinary
          course of business, Seller has not incurred any liabilities
          to customers for discounts, returns, promotional allowances
          or otherwise.  Seller has no liability for any refunds,

          the account of Seller on or prior to the Effective Date,
          except to the extent of the reserves therefor to be
          reflected on the July 31 Balance Sheet, the August 31
          Balance Sheet, the September 30 Balance Sheet and the
          Closing and Final Statements.  Where Seller Receivables
          arose out of secured transactions, all financing statements
          and other instruments required to be filed or recorded to
          perfect the title or security interest of Seller have been
          properly filed and recorded.  The reserves regarding such
          receivables set forth on the March 31 Balance Sheet and to
          be set forth on the July 31 Balance Sheet, the August 31
          Balance Sheet, the September 30 Balance Sheet and the

          in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
          calculated consistent with past practice."

          of principal and interest coming due under the HDA Notes
          into the trust created by the Trust Agreement, and the

          America will provide to Buyer financial information
          reasonably satisfactory to Buyer and/or Buyer's lenders
          regarding HD America's financial condition.

          accordance with the terms and conditions of the Trust
          Agreement."  

          23.  New Section 5.39.  The Parties agree that the following
     is hereby added to the Purchase Agreement as a new Section 5.39
     thereof:

               "5.39  Cincinnati Lease.  The Parties acknowledge that
          a provision of the lease by which Seller leases Seller's
          Cincinnati, Ohio facility requires Capital to be a guarantor
          of Seller's obligations under such lease and further
          provides that the lessor thereof may declare a default if
          Capital's net worth falls below the sum of One Million
          Dollars ($1,000,000).  Buyer acknowledges that Capital plans
          to liquidate at some time within one (1) year following the
          Closing Date, and that such liquidation may cause a default
          under such lease.  Buyer hereby assumes the risk of the
          declaration of a default by the landlord thereof as a result
          of the liquidation of Capital and agrees not to seek
          indemnification from Seller and Capital in the event of a
          declaration of a default by the landlord thereof." 
       
          24.  Amendment of Section 9.4(c).  The Parties agree that
     Section 9.4(c) of the Purchase Agreement is hereby deleted in its
     entirety and is hereby replaced by the following new Section
     9.4(c):

                    "(c) Buyer hereby agrees that following the merger
          of Seller into Capital, with Capital the surviving entity,
          and the effective date of Capital's dissolution, Buyer shall
          look solely to the monies and assets of Seller contained in
          the trust established pursuant to Sections 2.3(e) and 5.16
          hereof as the sole source of funds from which to satisfy any
          obligation of Seller or Capital to indemnify and hold Buyer
          harmless in the manner set forth herein, and Buyer agrees
          that Buyer shall not seek recourse from any of Capital's
          shareholders or any member of the Seller Group, as such term
          is defined below."

          25.  Consents.  The Parties acknowledge that consents
     regarding the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement
     have been previously obtained by Seller in connection with an
     earlier attempted consummation of such transactions which did not
     occur.  Haygood on the one hand and Seller and Capital on the
     other hereby agree that for the purposes of the Purchase
     Agreement as between the Parties all such consents shall be
     deemed to be dated as of September 30, 1995, notwithstanding the
     actual date thereof.

          26.  Incorporation.  The Parties agree that except as set
     forth herein, the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement
     remain in full force and effect as a binding agreement of the
     Parties, and the Parties further agree the terms and conditions
     of the Purchase Agreement are incorporated herein as if set forth
     word-for-word.  

          27.  Conflict.  In the event of a conflict between the terms
     and conditions of the Purchase Agreement and the terms and
     conditions of this First Amendment, the Parties agree that the
     terms and conditions of this First Amendment shall govern.

          IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties hereto have caused this
     Agreement to be executed as of the date first above written.

                           FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

                 September 29, 1995, Indianapolis, Indiana

                 Capital Industries, Inc. Sells Subsidiary

                                   * * *

     Capital Industries, Inc. today announced the sale of its TRUCKPRO
     subsidiary effective September 30 to Haygood Ltd. Partnership,

     Little Rock, Arkansas.  TRUCKPRO heavy duty truck parts sales and
     service operations span three states in twelve locations and will

     add to the thirty-five similar businesses already owned by
     Haygood.  With 47 operations of this type, Haygood becomes one of

     the nation's largest suppliers to the heavy duty truck parts
     aftermarket.  In announcing the transaction, a Capital

     spokesperson said:


          "We are pleased to sell TRUCKPRO to Haygood.  We
          believe the aggressive management style of each

          organization will blend well and result in the
          development of a strong national company.  We also

          believe TRUCKPRO employees will find a compatible work
          home as part of the Haygood organization.


          Following the closing, Capital will redeem its

          outstanding subordinated convertible debentures and
          begin planning the process of liquidation to its

          shareholders.  Detailed information about this process
          will be mailed to bondholders and shareholders as

          specific events occur."
