                     CHAMPION PARTS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
             NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (UNAUDITED)

    Note 1. The accompanying financial statements for the six and three
            months ended July 2, 2000 and June 27, 1999 have been prepared,
            without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
            Securities and Exchange Commission.  Certain information and
            footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements
            prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
            principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such
            rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the
            disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not
            misleading.  The condensed consolidated financial statements and
            these notes should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
            financial statements of the Company included in the Company's
            Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999.

            The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 1999 has been
            derived from the audited financial statements at that date and
            condensed.

    Note 2. The information furnished herein reflects all adjustments
            (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) which are, in the
            the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of
            the results of operations for the interim period.  Results of
            operations for the six and three months ending July 2, 2000 and
            June 27, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of results to be
            expected for the entire year.

    Note 3. Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out
            method) or market.  A summary of the inventories follows:

            ($ Thousands)            July 2, 2000      December 31, 1999
                                  ------------------   -----------------

               Total Inventories     $  9,029             $  9,240
                                     ========             ========
            Included in inventory above were net cores of $3.8 million
            (July 2, 2000) and $2.9 million (December 31, 1999).

    Note 4. For reporting purposes, product and core returns are offset
            against gross sales in arriving at net sales.  Total returns
            for the three months ending July 2, 2000 were $1,733,000 versus
            $1,520,000 during the same period last year. Total returns for
            six months ending July 2, 2000 were $4,273,000 versus $4,396,000
            for the same period in 1999.

    Note 5. The income tax expense attributable to operations for the six and
            three months ended July 2, 2000 differed from the amounts computed
            by applying the federal income tax rate of 34% principally as a
            result of tax benefits recognized related to the carryforward of
            net operating losses.

    Note 6. Business Segments - The Company has adopted Statement of
            Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 131," Disclosures
            About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information."
            Following the provisions of SFAS No. 131, the Company is
            reporting two operating business segments in the same format
            as reviewed by the Company's senior management.  Segment one,
            Fuel Systems & C.V. Assemblies, remanufactures and sells
            replacement fuel system components (carburetors and diesel
            fuel injection components) and constant velocity drive
            assemblies for substantially all makes and models of domestic
            and foreign automobiles and trucks.  Segment two, Electrical
            & Mechanical Products, remanufactures and sells replacement
            electrical and mechanical products for passenger car,
            agricultural and heavy-duty truck original equipment
            applications.  Management uses operating income as the measure
            of profit or loss by business segment.  Segment assets include
            amounts specifically identified with each operation.  Corporate
            assets consist primarily of property and equipment.

            Business segment information is as follows:

     ITEM 2.    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


     RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     THREE MONTHS ENDED JULY 2, 2000 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED
     JUNE 27, 1999

     For the second quarter ending July 2, 2000, net sales were $5,566,000, a
     decrease of $3.3 million, or 37.0%, versus net sales of $8,837,000 for
     the same period in 1999.  This decline in net sales compared to the
     second quarter of 1999 primarily reflects a substantial drop in
     carburetor net sales, which were down $2.4 million.  Second quarter
     1999 carburetor sales included unusually large new stocking orders for
     stores acquired by the Company's two large retail customers that were
     not repeated in 2000.  In addition, sales of starters, alternators,
     generators and water pumps with agricultural equipment customers were
     down $805,000, or 33.3%, from 1999 reflecting soft orders.  Automotive
     product sales were also under 1999 levels by $168,000, or 32.9%, while
     constant velocity assembly sales remained strong again this quarter
     exhibiting a 16.3% increase over 1999.  Total product and core returns,
     which are reflected in reductions to net sales, were 23.0% and 14.4% of
     gross sales in the second quarter of 2000 and 1999, respectively.
     Higher warranty returns and stock adjustment credits for the quarter
     together with the decline in sales account for the increase over
     second quarter 1999.

     Carburetor net sales were 58.4% and 63.8% of total net sales in the
     second quarter of 2000 and 1999, respectively.  The significant
     percentage point drop versus 1999 reflects a 42.4% decrease in
     carburetor sales, while all other product sales declined 27.6%.
     Although new vehicles sold in the United States and Canada are no
     longer equipped with carburetors, the Company continues to sell
     replacement units for older vehicles, many of which use carburetors.
     The Company expects that carburetor sales will continue to exhibit a
     steady decline in future years. In addition, carburetor margins may
     be negatively impacted in the future as customers seek to return
     product during periods of declining sales demand.

     Cost of products sold was $4,734,000, or 85.1% of net sales in the
     second quarter of 2000 as compared to $7,283,000, or 82.4% for the
     second quarter of 1999.  On a dollar basis, the cost of products sold
     was lower than 1999 by $2.5 million, or 35%, primarily reflecting a
     cut-back in production which included a one week shutdown of both
     manufacturing facilities in an attempt to balance production with the
     orders decline.  Emphasis on tighter materials control and utilization
     also helped to lower cost of products sold.  However, given the fixed
     base of manufacturing cost in place, it is not feasible to reduce
     rebuilding costs proportionately with a sales decline without seriously
     impeding production capabilities.

     Selling, distribution and administrative expenses were $575,000 for the
     quarter, compared to $762,000 in the second quarter of 1999.  Primarily
     contributing to the 24.6% spending decrease were reduced distribution
     costs reflecting the lower sales volume, lower selling expenses due to

<PAGE>                                 -12-
     termination of commissions to an outside sales representative, and lower
     administrative spending at both Divisions combined with the reduction
     in Corporate overhead realized by moving the Corporate headquarters to
     the Hope Division.

     Interest expense was $121,000 for the second quarter of 2000, versus
     $158,000 in the same period of 1999.  The reduction is due to the lower
     overall amount of debt outstanding, principally in lower Letter of
     Credit and Industrial Revenue Bond interest cost.

     For the second quarter of 2000, net income was $129,000 compared to
     $729,000 for the same period in 1999. This $600,000, or 82.3%, decrease
     principally reflects the significant decrease in net sales and resultant
     loss of gross margins, as noted in the preceding analysis.


     SIX MONTHS ENDED JULY 2, 2000 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 27, 1999

     For the six months ended July 2, 2000, net sales were $13,020,000,
     reflecting a decrease of $2,822,000 (17.8%) below net sales of
     $15,842,000 for the same period in 1999.  This net sales decline is
     primarily due to a substantial drop of $2.4 million in carburetor net
     sales during the second quarter.  Carburetor sales in 1999 included
     unusually large new stocking orders for stores acquired by the Company's
     two large retail customers that were not repeated in 2000.  Sales of
     starters, alternators, generators and water pumps with agricultural
     equipment customers that were strong in the first quarter of 2000,
     up $541,000, or 49.7%, declined significantly during the second quarter,
     down $805,000, or 33.3%, reflecting extremely soft orders.  Automotive
     product sales also declined $183,000, or 20.6%, from the 1999 first half
     levels. Constant velocity assembly sales have remained strong the entire
     six months exhibiting an increase of 12.5% over the first half of 1999.
     Total product and core returns, which are reflected in reductions to net
     sales, were 24.1% and 21.3% of gross sales in the first six months 2000
     and 1999, respectively.  The decline in sales accounted for the
     percentage increase over 1999.

     Carburetor sales were 64.7% and 68.3% of net sales in the first six
     months of 2000 and 1999, respectively. The percentage point drop versus
     1999 reflects a 22.2% decline in carburetor sales, while all other
     product sales declined during the first half 8.4%. Although new vehicles
     sold in the United States and Canada are no longer equipped with
     carburetors, the Company continues to sell replacement units for older
     vehicles, many of which use carburetors.  The Company expects that
     carburetor sales will continue to exhibit a steady decline in future
     years. In addition, carburetor margins may be negatively impacted in
     the future as customers seek to return product during periods of
     declining sales demand.

     Cost of products sold was $10,726,000, or 82.4%, of net sales in the
     first half of 2000 as compared to $13,149,000, or 83.0%, for the first
     half of 1999.  The decrease in the cost of products sold as a percent
     of net sales is primarily attributed to lower direct labor reflecting
     a one week shutdown at both manufacturing facilities.  Materials were
     also favorable due to improved materials utilization, which resulted
     in reduced materials spending.  Manufacturing overhead expenses, which
     are relatively fixed, was essentially level with l999 reflecting
     controlled overhead spending at both manufacturing facilities.
<PAGE>                                 -13-
     Selling, distribution and administrative expenses were $1,274,000 for
     the first six months of 2000, compared to $1,481,000 in the first six
     months of 1999.  The 14.0% decrease over the same period in 1999
     reflects reduced distribution costs due to the lower sales volume,
     lower selling expenses due to termination of commissions to an outside
     sales representative, and lower administrative spending at both
     Divisions combined with the reduction in Corporate overhead realized
     by moving the Corporate headquarters to the Hope Division.

     Interest expense was $272,000 for the first half of 2000 as compared to
     $314,000 in the same period of 1999.  This reduction is due to the lower
     overall amount of debt outstanding, principally in lower Letter of
     Credit and Industrial Revenue Bond interest cost.

     Net income before extraordinary gains, was $731,000 for the first six
     months of 2000 versus $936,000 for the same period last year.  The
     $205,000, or 21%, decline from 1999 primarily reflects the significant
     decrease in net sales and resultant lower margins for the reasons
     mentioned earlier.

     There were no extraordinary gains during the first half of 2000.  An
     extraordinary gain of $59,000 was recorded in the first six months of
     1999 resulting from a creditor debt restructuring settlement.


     LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     Net working capital at July 2, 2000 was a positive $2,102,000, compared
     to a positive $865,000 at the end of 1999, and a negative $983,000 for
     June 27, 1999.  The $1,237,000 increase in working capital over the 1999
     year-end is principally a result of higher trade accounts receivable
     (up $927,000) and gross inventories (up $168,000), combined with a
     decrease in accrued liabilities reflecting decreases in accounts payable
     (down $765,000) and accrued expenses(down $303,000).  Compared with June
     1999, the working capital increase primarily resulted from substantially
     higher inventories and lower accrued expenses.

     Net accounts receivable at July 2, 2000 were $4,818,000, or $927,000
     (24%) higher versus the year-end 1999 balance of $3,891,000 primarily
     resulting from slow payments by a major customer.  Net receivables
     decreased $1,191,000 compared to the June 27, 1999 balance of $6,009,000
     reflecting the substantially lower sales in the second quarter.

     Net inventories of $9,029,000 at July 2, 2000, were lower by $211,000
     compared to year-end fiscal 1999 balance.  Reductions were achieved in
     the work-in-process and finished goods inventory categories which more
     than offset a slight increase raw materials inventories.  Net inventories
     increased by $1,946,000 versus June 1999 reflecting higher parts, raw
     core and work-in-process inventories for the ramp-up of carburetor
     production in the first quarter at the Hope Facility.

     Accounts payable at the end of the second quarter of 2000 were $765,000
     lower than year-end 1999, however, they were $937,000 higher than June
     1999.  The decline from year-end is due to lower raw materials spending,
     while the increase over the same period last year reflects higher raw
     materials spending for the increased production of carburetors at the
     Hope Division.

<PAGE>                                 -14-

     Accrued expenses at the end of second quarter were $303,000 lower than
     fiscal year-end 1999 balances because of reductions to accruals related
     to a legal settlement and a reduction in professional fee accruals.
     Compared to June 1999, accrued expenses were lower by $1,396,000 as a
     result of a lower worker's compensation accrual due to claims
     settlements, and lower sales deduction accruals which are predicated
     primarily on carburetor sales which declined from last year.


     DEBT

     At July 2, 2000 the balance outstanding on the loan facility was
     $3,593,000 plus letter of credit accommodations of $1,693,000.  This
     compares to a loan balance at December 31, 1999 of $3,424,000 and
     accommodations of $1,993,000 and a loan balance at June 27, 1999
     of $3,927,000 and accommodations of $1,993,000.


     SEASONALITY

     The Company's business is slightly seasonal in nature, primarily as a
     result of the impact of weather conditions on the demand for certain
     automotive replacement parts.  Historically, the Company's sales and
     profits have been slightly higher in the first and fourth quarters of
     each year than in the second and third quarters.


     FACTORS WHICH MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS

     This quarterly report contains forward-looking statements that are
     subject to risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to
     the following:

     The Company expects the existing over-capacity in the automotive
     aftermarket and consolidation within its distribution channels to
     cause continued selling price pressure for the foreseeable future.
     The present competitive environment is causing change in traditional
     aftermarket distribution channels resulting in volume retailers
     gaining additional market presence at the expense of traditional
     wholesalers. In response, the Company has attempted to diversify its
     customer base and currently serves all major segments, including
     automotive warehouse distributors and jobbers, original equipment
     manufacturers of automotive equipment and large volume automotive
     retailers.  The anticipated decline in sales from the profitable
     carburetor product line over the longer term will impact future
     results.  The Company intends to offset these impacts through
     development of niche product markets, new product development,
     improvements in its manufacturing processes and cost containment
     with a strong focus on capacity utilization. There is no assurance
     that the Company's efforts will be successful.

     The Company's three largest customers accounted for an aggregate
     of 89.5% of the Company's total sales in first half of 2000.  Given
     the Company's current financial condition and its manufacturing cost
     structure, the loss of a large customer would have a materially
     adverse impact on the Company's financial condition and results
     of operations.
<PAGE>                                 -15-

     While the Company has established reserves for potential environmental
     liabilities that it believes to be adequate, there can be no assurance
     that the reserves will be adequate to cover actual costs incurred or
     that the Company will not incur additional environmental liabilities
     in the future.

     Accordingly, actual results may differ materially from those set forth
     in the forward-looking statements.
