Re: [VintageLambo] Re: Oliver Kutner - Impressions

Hi Orvin, Thanks for the heads up. Did this group ever have any Lamborghini parts or were they mostly into the Maserati line? Doesn"t appear to have achieved his goal of cornering the market, at any rate.

In summary, during the mid-80"s Oliver Kutner seemed to have the intention and purchasing power to "corner the exotic car market in North America" but personal experience has taught me that anyone considering doing business with him had better have their wits about them.
