Electric Car Factory Breaks Ground in Kentucky for Joint Venture Between ZAP and Integrity
Monday September 15, 7:00 am ET
FRANKLIN, KY and SANTA ROSA, CA--(MARKET WIRE)--Sep 15, 2008 -- Work commenced at the site of an electric car factory in Franklin, Kentucky, according to officials for Integrity Automotive, a joint venture to expand electric vehicle manufacturing in the USA for ZAP (OTC BB:ZAAP.OB - News).
Source: ZAP
An electric car factory broke ground in Kentucky for Integrity Automotive, a new joint venture expected to manufacture the Alias and other electric vehicles from ZAP (www.zapworld.com).
Construction equipment arrived at the site of the Wilkey North Industrial Park on Thursday and a site contractor with a work crew have been mobilized as of Friday to prepare the 200-plus acre site for rough grading, said Randall S. Waldman of Integrity Manufacturing. The goal of the project is a one million square foot factory for electric vehicles, a project with an estimated value of $100 million. The factory is expected to begin producing electric vehicles within 12 months and employ up to 1,000 people initially with the possibility of more in the future.
Integrity Manufacturing and Waldman will be the majority stakeholder in the new Kentucky-based joint venture to manufacture electric vehicles exclusively for global distribution for ZAP. To assist in the plant construction, Waldman said the City of Franklin is preparing $76 million in industrial revenue bonds. The State of Kentucky has pledged financial incentives for economic development and job creation that the factory would bring. A groundbreaking ceremony was held on August 28 with state and local officials as well as business leaders from Franklin and Simpson County.
"We wanted to come to a place where the community would support us," said Randall Waldman at the event. "There is nothing more important than to be having a community come together behind a project that will bring a lot of jobs to the area." View the speech online at

Volume up to 165,000 shares. I truly wish we knew what is going on. It seems we never really do.
But it would appear someone is accumulating shares, and others are happy to unload at 0.115
JP
Bid and Ask walking up.
News coming?
Would be nice.
JP
Apparently this is why we are down 42% today?
JP
bball19: I will gladly sell YOU my 55,000 shares at 0.03. How can we arrange this transaction?
JP
Someone posted yesterday the Sulja had just "locked up" a $20 million deal.
Gross misrepresentations like that are what anger me the most. Look at the company's PR. It talks only of intentions, potential, and possibilities. Those like Aiyrs who build on such senseless statements are simply pumpers.
Ignore them and buy this stock with extreme caution and a read plan for exit.
JP
Really?
buying a stock at 0.005 and selling at 0.02 makes it a reputable company? A stock that people should invest their money in?
give it up, make your money, but don't pump this company as anything reputable.
JP
Why would a simple lumber yard have more capabiltiy to enter into a $20MM venture than a larger, reputable firm. If there is $20MM to be made in Alberta, you can bet this penny-stock company is not at some great, wise advantage to grab the money. I agree 0.02/share is a joke, as is this company and their future.
JP
Not if you trade with a company that charges 1 penny per share traded for any share amount above 5,000. The trading fee is greater than the stock price!
Give me a $10 stock any day.
JP
the real joke is a stock going up 4 tenths of a penny and people shouting "We are all getting rich!"
JP
check it in a week and see if it has gone up another 43%. By the way, let's not kid ourselves. The 43% increase was FOUR TENTHS of a PENNY!! It is not like this stock has gone up a hundred dollars a share or something else with significance.
JP
People you had better listen to Aiyrs right now. Why if you wait a week this stock may cost you $0.001 more per share! Just think, a purchase of 100,000 shares could cost you $100 more. Ye gads, what are you people waiting for?
Just wait until.............??
JP
On ETrade the bid is 0.11 this morning with the ask at 0.119. Maybe we are due for some movement?
JP
Today's trade. How does someone sneak in and buy 320 shares 20% below the current bid?
When will the stock market ever return to the honest market it once was?
JP
pretty hard to sell when the commission is more than the value of the shares
HOF
Bid at 0.011 (Etrade), so no sub penny gap at start. That is a bit encouraging.
HOF
CM3: no problem. I am holding and trying not to look!
If we recover fine. If not, I will move on. Nothing eternal here, so in a hundred years no one knows the difference.
HOF
cm3: no, I simply said look at the stock price to see what public opinion is of the stock.
HOF
cm3i long termer: how about we just show you the price of the stock? Seems pretty convincing to me.
HOF
AIRYS: No offense meant, but you have totally lost credibility because of the company and Petar's actions or lack thereof. You would do best to simply shut it down.
HOF
plasma man: I have seen Janice on boards before. Show me one that she called a scam that was not. This one is looking worse by the minute and unfortunately AIRS is sounding like a company hack in a boiler room somewhere.
Sulja is dead.
HOF
180,000 so far, currently at 0.014
HOG: this purchase of a clean NASDAQ BB shell has me fascinated. I have mentioned OZON several times, as this is one I am familiar with. Once a very promising company, this one is ripe for the picking, IMHO. I wonder if anyone from Sulja has contacted them?
HOF
Maybe the fax blast is needed to reply to the letter Petar received????????????
HOF
Airys418: Since you indicate that Petar wishes to get information to the stockholders, but is unable to obtain clearance for press releases from the lawyers, and since he has indicated he may use you and Hog to distribute information, then I believe that releases you from any obligation to remain silent on issues. You can tell us all you know and even "speculate."
You are now free to talk.
HOF
Fatty: In response to your request as to why I like OZON as the shell:
1. It is a NASDAQ BB stock
2. The number of shares is relatively small (32MM float)
3. Its currrent price is very low (0.003)
4. I believe the company is actually looking for a buyer.
5. There may even be some patents of value that the company
still holds.
6. It is, I believe, registered in Utah, which apparently
is some kind of advantage for a BB stock.
7. You can call the president and discuss issues with him
at any time (7105 South Highland Drive #102 Salt Lake
City, UT 84121 Phone 801-972-9090) Thomas Howells.
8. For some unknown reason the stock trades shares nearly
every day.

the perfect shell is out there--OZON eom
I finally figured out how to keep this stock above 0.015........................... put in a buy order at 0.015!
Genius, I am,
HOF
This is not a forum for other stocks. Please move on.
I understand and agree. In fact, my post is exactly about moving on and planning an exit strategy. Hopefully, Sulja has one last pop, I am able to sell my shares, and invest them in something solid.
In reality, with all the hundreds of messages posted on this page each day, what is one post that mentions something to move your money into?
Nevertheless, I am moving on.

My new investment strategy: no pinkies; no pennies; no bulletin board stocks; rare NASDAQ stocks; no four-letter stocks; no hundred million share stocks; no stocks with hundreds of upset shareholders.
Only three letter stocks; NYSE or AMEX; only companies with a profit
In other words: stable, honest companies with good management. Maybe I can sleep at night!
Note: I am not touting the stock described below. I am just giving my example of my new strategy.
My first choice: NWD

Once the dust clears from this past weekend and the lack of the promised PR, it may be time to recommend some BB companies for purchase/merger. OZON is my recommendation. This is a sitting shell, selling at 0.003, registered in Deleware/Utah, 40 million shares outstanding, I believe $8 million in debt waiting to be written off.

Pink Sheet stocks are a throw of the dice. The only real question is how much money do you want to place on the pass line. Personally, I like the way this stock has built the tension, making for a bigger payoff. Another key is limiting your liability. I have only $3,000 invested and my average is around 0.027. I am hoping for a price of 0.15. Thus, I am hoping to make $4500, nothing more. There is a reasonable possibility I will meet my target. If not, I am prepared to eat about $1500 in losses.
Not greedy, but certainly hoping to make a buck.
