My company was founded to back up my company in Brazil named Achcar Racing Enterprise of Brasil Ltda.
I am a quite well-known automotive vehicle constructor and patent holder in multiple fields as well automotive. About one a half year ago I decided to invest in the US producing real engineered and outstanding iconic vehicles Porsche based of the 50's/60's. I am authorized by Porsche to do so using my name/make quite traditional in Brazil. We invested around $490.000 within our company in engineering, designing, gig construction, body molding and reproduction. Our production is 100% original Volkwagen parts - I am a licensed racing car manufacturer from Volkwagen do Brasil since 1974. All parts non based on Professor F. Porsche (utilizing Volkswagen original parts) is proprietary to my company and represents 60% of our accounted assets. We are stepping in the US soil with four Turn Key demo retrofitted iconic models sales value $200,000.00 +.
Those iconic vehicles are 70%+ hand made in the sense no market ready. Had to be designed and our next consideration is spare parts ready in stock at our premises in the US. Those cars are not expo vehicles but daily use as rugged in structured performance. We are authorized to produce three models and at present time we hold the Spider 550 and the Speedster better known in the US as the Roadster (we might even use this reference). We are on a very short time production to make those electric - no gear change - quite suitable to American drivers specially ladies. We can supply a well compiled brochure. Right now we wish to prepare ourselves for expected demand according to people in the field we consulted. Our Achilles tendon is the fact that those machines being hand made we must invest in reserve production in order to prepare the company to construct and distribute 48 vehicles each year and for our start we need 4 months preparation. We require $500,000.00 investment for 16 months. We have considered with our bank in Brazil to operate on a revolving account based on a Letter of Credit Red Spot which will allow us to draw as we build and export. We are considering our sales on demo four cars as part of the required capital for turnover. The point is that we must be as prepared as possible to be able to place immediately order on parts and proprietary construction, so we can catch up with demand and be eligible to take firm orders money down.
