C53PS HERBST

[Frank Ruff]

What is the story on the C53PS? I was told they were going to be switched from Germany to a Japanese manufacturer. Is this true? If so when should we expect to see some?
Thanks
Frank

Frank - Yes, this is true. We don't have all info together yet, but We're hoping for January Y2K production. Molds are being shifted around and shipping and inspections take time. The German manufacture had a full plate with other products. The design will more than likely become a lock back and there will more than likely be a steel change.
