NEW TATRAPLAN WEBSITE

no comment Posted by smitkees

With the assistance of a number of people, and especially Ivan Margolius, I have created a web site for Tatraplans located around the world, by serial number. The link is http://s834.photobucket.com/albums/zz262/Tatraplans/ The site is still in it’s infancy, however hopefully you will see the direction that it is going in. I still have a considerable number of cars awaiting confirmation of the serial numbers from owners, and these will be added as received. If you are familiar with any Tatraplan owners that may not have internet access, please mention this to them, and encourage them to participate by proving their serial number to you. These can be forwarded to me at tatrat600tatraplan@ gmail.com Any information relevant to Tatraplans is welcome, whether it be photos, copies of manuals, literature, technical tips, parts interchange, etc. etc.

Czech truckmaker Tatra cutting 530 jobs

no comment Posted by smitkees

Thursday October 08, 2009 09:17:08 AM GMT CZECH-TATRA/JOBS PRAGUE, Oct 6 (Reuters) – Czech truckmaker Tatra will let go of 530 staff this month and shorten its working week from November due to falling orders, a spokesman said on Tuesday. The company had let go of 1,000 employees up to June because of the economic crisis and posted a loss-making 2008. It said it expects its employee count to be around 2,200 after this latest round of job losses. Unemployment in the Czech Republic has jumped to a more than three-year high of 8.5 percent, and many analysts see it growing to near 10 percent next year as manufacturers shed jobs.

TATRA SHARES TRADED AT HIGH PRIZES AND VOLUMES AT

no comment Posted by smitkees

PRAGUE STOCK EXCHANGE THIS WEEK PRAGUE – Czech exchange RM-System in the last week brought no appreciable pulses, with the exception of Koprivnice Tatra. In just three days the shares raised 140 percent. Investors reacted positively on the announced collaboration with the U.S. company Navistar Defense and worth of the shares have seen meteoric growth, which is unusual even in this time. Tatra should work together to produce a new line of off-road trucks. Cooperation should also be facilitating her entry into the U.S. market and reduce the cost of materials. The report is certainly positive, but no specific order has yet been introduced and optimism justifying such an increase in the share price, in this case was excessive,” said Jand
