                 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

A.    In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited consolidated
      condensed financial statements contain all adjustments, which are normal
      and recurring in nature, necessary to present fairly its financial
      position as at September 30, 1997 and the results of operations for the
      three and nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 and cash flows for
      nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996.  In addition, the balance
      sheet as of December 31, 1996 reflects the segregation of net current and
      net non-current assets related to the disposition of the Company's
      Technical Services Group. 

      Primary earnings per common share were computed based on 48.6 million and 
      49.1 million weighted average common shares and common equivalent shares
      outstanding for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997,
      respectively.  Primary earnings per common share were computed based on
      57.0 million and 56.7 million weighted average common shares and common
      equivalent shares outstanding for the three and nine months ended
      September 30, 1996, respectively.
  
      The convertible preferred stock, redeemed for Company Common Stock on June
      27, 1997, met the criteria for inclusion as a common stock equivalent for
      the nine months ended September 30, 1997 for purposes of determining
      earnings per share.  As a result, the weighted average convertible
      preferred shares outstanding are included in the primary and fully diluted
      earnings per common share calculation for the nine months ended September
      30, 1997.  If such conversion had taken place at the beginning of 1997,
      the primary earnings per common share amounts would have approximated the
      amounts presented, for the nine months ended September 30, 1997.

      Fully diluted earnings per common share are only presented when the
      assumed conversion of convertible securities is dilutive.  Fully diluted
      earnings per common share were calculated based on 58.6 million and 59.2
      million weighted average common shares outstanding for the three and nine
      months ended September 30, 1997, respectively.  Fully diluted earnings per
      common share were calculated based on 67.0 million and 57.1 million
      weighted average common shares outstanding for the three and nine months
      ended September 30, 1996, respectively.

                 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(continued)

D.    In the first quarter of 1997, the Company completed the sale of its
      Technical Services Group (comprised of the Company's engineering and
      technical business services units) to MSX International, Inc. ("MSXI"). 
      Also included in this transaction were the net assets of APX
      International, which were acquired by the Company in November, 1996 for
      approximately $44 million.  The sale resulted in total proceeds to the
      Company of approximately $145 million consisting principally of cash,
      subordinated debentures, preferred stock and an approximate 45 percent
      common equity interest in MSXI.  The excess of the consideration received
      by the Company over the book value of the related assets has been
      accounted for as a reduction in the carrying value of the Company's
      investment in MSXI, and will be recognized when additional cash is
      realized from the non-cash proceeds received in the transaction. 

E.    In the first quarter of 1997, TriMas Corporation ("TriMas"), an equity
      affiliate, issued stock as a result of the redemption of a convertible
      debt instrument.  The Company recognized pre-tax income of approximately
      $13 million (approximately $.13 per common share after-tax) as a result of
      the change in the Company's equity ownership in TriMas.

F.    The Company previously announced that it had signed a Memorandum of
      Understanding with Teksid S.p.A. concerning a possible acquisition by the
      Company of certain businesses of Teksid's Steel Components Division.  It
      is contemplated that the businesses, with 1996 sales of approximately $150
      million, would be spun-off from Teksid and contributed to newly formed
      companies in which Teksid would retain a participation.  The transaction
      is subject to the completion of due diligence, the execution of a
      definitive agreement, regulatory approvals, and approval by the respective
      Boards of Directors.

G.    On June 27, 1997, the Company completed the redemption of all remaining
      issued and outstanding shares of its $1.20 Convertible Preferred Stock
      ("DECS").  Holders of DECS shares received in exchange for each share of
      DECS .955 percent of a share of the Company's Common Stock, par value
      $1.00 per share, resulting in the issuance of approximately 10 million
      shares of Company Common Stock.  

H.    On September 30, 1997, the Company exercised its option and exchanged its
      equity holdings in Emco Limited ("Emco") and approximately $46 million in
      cash to Masco Corporation ("Masco") to satisfy the indebtedness to Masco
      incurred in 1996 in connection with the Company's purchase and retirement
      of certain of its common shares held by Masco.  The transfer of the
      Company's equity holdings in Emco, which approximated $106 million in
      value, resulted in a pre-tax gain of approximately $46 million
      (approximately $.50 per common share after-tax) in the third quarter of
      1997.

I.    The Company has limited involvement with derivative financial instruments,
      and does not use derivatives for trading purposes.  The derivatives,
      principally consisting of S&P 500 futures contracts, are intended to
      reduce the market risk associated with the Company's marketable equity
      securities portfolio.  Derivatives are carried at market value and changes
      in market value of outstanding futures contracts are recognized as
      incurred. The Company's investment in futures contracts increases in value
      as a result of decreases in the underlying stock index and decreases in
      value when the underlying stock index increases.  The contracts are
      financial instruments (with off balance sheet market risk), as they are
      required to be settled in cash.  At September 30, 1997, the notional
      amount of the derivatives was  $19 million.  The notional amounts do not
      represent the amounts exchanged by the parties, and thus are not a measure
      of the exposure of the Company through its use of derivatives.  The
      Company's market risk is subject to

                                          5

                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(concluded)

      the price differential between the future contract market value and future
      contract cost.

      Futures contracts trade on organized exchanges, and as a result,
      settlement of such contracts has little credit risk.  Initial margin
      requirements are met in cash or other instruments, and changes in the
      contract values are settled periodically.  Initial margin requirements are
      recorded as cash investments in the balance sheet.  Futures contracts are
      short-term in nature, usually less than six months.  Related gains and
      losses are reported as income or loss in other income (expense) as part of
      marketable securities portfolio gain or loss.  The Company recognized net
      gains from its marketable securities portfolio and S&P 500 futures
      contracts of approximately $4 million in the quarter ended September 30,
      1997.

J.    The Company expects that Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
      128 ("SFAS 128"), "Earnings Per Share," will not have a material impact on
      its fully diluted earnings per share calculation when adopted at December
      31, 1997. 

K.    During the third quarter, the Company recorded a charge of $7.0 million
      related to the closure of a manufacturing facility which will be completed
      in 1998.  The components of the $7.0 million charge include asset write
      downs of $4.8 million, employee severance and other benefits of $1.6
      million and accruable exit costs of $.6 million.

L.    The following presents combined supplemental financial data of the Company
      and TriMas as one entity, with MascoTech as the parent company.  The
      Company had an equity ownership interest in TriMas of approximately 37
      percent and 41 percent at September 30, 1997 and September 30, 1996,
      respectively.  Intercompany transactions have been eliminated. 
      Approximate combined condensed financial data are as follows (in
      thousands):

Item 2.             MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

      Sales of the Company's core transportation-related businesses, aided by an
acquisition, increased approximately three percent to approximately $222 million
in the third quarter of 1997 from $215 million in 1996.  The Company's reported
consolidated sales for the 1996 third quarter of approximately $291 million
include the results of certain businesses which have been disposed, as
previously announced.

      Sales of the Company's core transportation-related businesses, aided by an
acquisition, increased approximately five percent to approximately $689 million
for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 from approximately $658 million in
1996.  The Company's reported consolidated sales for the nine month period ended
September 30, 1996 of approximately $1.0 billion include the results of certain
businesses which have been disposed, as previously announced.

      Income in the third quarter of 1997 was $38.7 million or $.70 per common
share, compared with $16.2 million or $.28 per common share in the comparable
period in 1996.  Income in 1997 was impacted by a pre-tax gain of approximately
$46 million related to the transfer of the Company's equity holdings in Emco
Limited ("Emco") to Masco Corporation ("Masco").  This gain was partially offset
by costs, of approximately $14 million, associated with a plant closure and the
Company's share of a special charge recorded by an equity affiliate and other
expenses.  Excluding the impact of the gain and unusual expenses, income in the
third quarter of 1997 would have been $19.2 million or $.37 per common share. 
Third quarter 1997 income was also negatively affected by costs and expenses as
a result of a strike at one of the Company's manufacturing facilities and higher
than anticipated product start-up costs.  The negative impact of these costs was
partially offset by gains from the Company's marketable securities portfolio. 

      Operating profit for the Company's core businesses before general
corporate expense, plant closure costs and other costs and expenses for the 
nine months and three months ended September 30, 1997 was approximately $101 
million and $26 million, respectively, as compared with $99 million and $34 
million for the comparable periods in 1996. 

      Results for the nine month period ended September 30, 1997 benefitted from
pre-tax gains aggregating approximately $26.6 million (approximately $.27 per
common share after-tax) as a result of an equity transaction by an affiliate of
the Company and gains from the Company's marketable securities portfolio. 
Results for the nine month period ended September 30, 1996 benefitted from the
required adoption of an accounting change, which resulted in after-tax income of
$11.7 million, and include after-tax losses of approximately $26 million from
the disposition of MascoTech Stamping Technologies, Inc.

      In the second quarter of 1997, the Company completed the redemption of all
remaining issued and outstanding shares of its $1.20 Convertible Preferred Stock
("DECS") on June 27, 1997.  Holders of DECS shares received in exchange for each
share of DECS .955 percent of a share of the Company's Common Stock, par value
$1.00 per share, resulting in the issuance of approximately 10 million shares of
Company Common Stock.

      In the first quarter of 1997, the Company completed the sale of its
Technical Services Group (comprised of the Company's engineering and technical
business services units) to MSX International, Inc. ("MSXI").  Also included in
this transaction were the net assets of APX International, which were acquired
by the Company in November, 1996 for approximately $44 million.  The sale
resulted in total proceeds to the Company of approximately $145 million
consisting principally of cash, subordinated debentures, preferred stock and an
approximate 45 percent common equity interest in MSXI.  The excess of the
consideration received by the Company over the book value of the related assets
has been accounted for as a reduction in the carrying value of the Company's
investment in MSXI, and will be recognized when additional cash is realized from
the non-cash proceeds received in the transaction.

      Equity and interest income from affiliates decreased in the third quarter
of 1997 as compared to the third quarter of 1996 principally as a result of the
Company's share of a special charge recorded by an equity affiliate.

      The Company declared and paid a cash dividend of $.06 per common share in
the third quarter of 1997.  The Board of Directors also declared a dividend of
$.06 per common share on September 23, 1997 payable on November 17, 1997.

      On September 30, 1997, the Company exercised its option and exchanged its
equity holdings in Emco and approximately $46 million in cash to Masco to
satisfy the indebtedness to Masco incurred in 1996 in connection with the
Company's purchase and retirement of certain of its common shares held by Masco.

      Additional borrowings available under the Company's amended revolving
credit agreement and otherwise, and anticipated internal cash flows are expected
to provide sufficient liquidity to fund the Company's foreseeable working
capital, acquisitions, capital expansion programs, dividends, any stock
repurchases and other investment needs.  At September 30, 1997, current assets
were approximately  two times current liabilities.
