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

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

NET SALES   Net sales for the third quarter ended September 28, 1996 decreased
29.2% to $39.7 million from $56.1 million for the third quarter ended September
30, 1995.  The decrease in sales for the quarter ended September 28, 1996, was
primarily attributable to a 29.7% decrease in new trailer units sold.  Net
sales for the nine months ended September 28, 1996, were $119.6 million, a
33.3% decrease from the $179.3 million in the comparable prior year period.
This decrease in sales was primarily due to a 32.0% decrease in new trailer
units sold from the comparable period in 1995.

GROSS PROFIT   Gross profit as a percentage of sales totaled 1.8% for the third
quarter of 1996 compared to 6.2% for the same period in 1995.  The gross profit
percentage for the nine month period ended September 28, 1996 was .9% versus
6.9% for the same period in 1995.  Lower gross profit in 1996 was due to
several factors, including substantially lower volume and selling prices
resulting from very weak market demand and excess production capacity in the
industry.  Also contributing to the decrease was significant start-up losses at
the Company's new flatbed facility in Cartersville, Georgia.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES   Selling, general and
administrative ("S, G, & A") expenses for the third quarter of 1996 increased
29.6% versus  the third quarter of 1995 and also increased as a percentage of
sales to 5.5% in the third quarter of 1996 from 3.0% for the corresponding
period in 1995.  S,G,&A expenses for the nine month period ended September 28,
1996 increased 11.9% versus the same period in 1995, and increased as a
percentage of sales to 5.2%  from 3.1% for the corresponding period in 1995.

PROVISION FOR PLANT CLOSING   Costs related to the Company's closed facilities
increased in the third quarter of 1996 over the same period in 1995 and
includes costs related to the closing of the Northumberland, Pennsylvania plant
which occurred during the fourth quarter of 1995.

INTEREST EXPENSE, NET   Interest expense, net for the three and nine month
periods ended September 28, 1996 totaled $112,000 and $286,000 compared to
interest income of $43,000 and interest expense of $14,000 for the same periods
in 1995.  The increase is a result of the notes payable for the purchases of
the Cartersville, Georgia facility and the Dillon, South Carolina facility.

NET INCOME (LOSS)   Net loss for the three months and nine months ended
September 28, 1996 was $1.0 million and $3.7 million which included a credit
for income taxes of $.6 million and $2.3 million, respectively.  Net income for
the three and nine months ended September 30, 1995 was $1.1 million and $5.3
million which was positively impacted by utilization of the deferred tax
valuation reserve, which reduced the income tax expense by $1.1 million for the
nine month period.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As presented in the Statement of Cash Flows, net cash used in operating
activities was $2.8 million during the first nine months of 1996 and $2.0
million during the corresponding period of 1995.

In July, 1996, the Company purchased the majority of the assets of a Dillon,
South Carolina based dump trailer manufacturer.  The purchase was made with a
combination of cash and notes.

Due to its 1996 operating loss, the Company is in violation of covenants
covering tangible net worth, leverage, and fixed charges as of September 28,
1996, under its revolving credit agreement with a financial institution.  The
lender has not agreed to waive this event of default and has informed the
Company that funding requests under this agreement will not be honored as long
as these covenant violations exist.  The Company has no borrowings outstanding
under this agreement as of September 28, 1996, although $2 million in letters
of credit are outstanding under this facility.

The Company is working with another financial institution to establish a credit
facility for replacing the existing revolving credit agreement.  Although there
is no assurance that the proposed transaction will be consummated, management
believes a new facility will be in place before the end of 1996.  The Company
expects to begin borrowing under the proposed line as soon as it becomes
available.  The intended use of such borrowing would be to reduce the current
level of indebtedness to trade creditors.  Until such time as a new facility is
available, management expects to meet its liquidity needs from cash provided by
operations, cash and cash equivalents, and a reduction in its working capital.

BACKLOG

The Company's backlog of orders was approximately $44 million at December 31,
1995 and $34 million at September 28, 1996.  The backlog includes only those
orders for trailers for which a confirmed customer order has been received.
The Company manufactures trailers only to customer or dealer order and does not
generally maintain an inventory of trailers.
