                                  TWENTY SIXTH
                                    AMENDMENT
                                       TO
                                LICENSE AGREEMENT


This TWENTY SIXTH  AMENDMENT,  effective as of the later date of the  signatures
below,  is to  that  certain  Reproduction  and  Service  Part  Tooling  License
Agreement  effective  December 1, 1993 by and between Service Parts  Operations,
General Motors Corporation ("LICENSOR") and Eckler Industries, Inc. ("LICENSEE")
as  amended by the FIRST  through  TWENTY  FIFTH  AMENDMENTS  (collectively  the
"AGREEMENT").

WHEREAS,  the parties  have entered into the  AGREEMENT  and mutually  desire to
amend such AGREEMENT as specifically provided herein;

NOW THEREFORE for good and valuable  consideration,  the sufficiency of which is
hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

1.   Paragraph 4.1 of the AGREEMENT is hereby amended to extend the Initial Term
     from July 31, 2001 to December 31, 2001.

2.   Paragraph  4.2 of the  AGREEMENT is hereby  stricken in its entirety and is
     replaced with the following new Paragraph 4.2:

         "4.2 Renewal Term. Upon expiration of the Initial Term,  LICENSEE shall
         have the right to two  successive  automatic  five-year  renewal  terms
         (i.e.,  January 1, 2002 to  December  31,  2006 and  January 1, 2007 to
         December 31, 2011) provided:  a) LICENSEE has paid earned Net Royalties
         (defined in Exhibit III) in the amount of $750,000 during the 12 months
         immediately preceding the start of the first renewal term (i.e., in the
         12 months  ending  December 31,  2001) and in the amount of  $1,000,000
         during  the 12 months  immediately  preceding  the start of the  second
         renewal term (i.e., in the 12 months ending December 31, 2006),  and b)
         LICENSEE is not  otherwise  in breach of the  AGREEMENT  at the time of
         renewal."

3.   Exhibit I of the AGREEMENT, as amended, is hereby further amended to delete
     the  LICENSED  PARTS  identified  on  ATTACHMENT  A to  this  TWENTY  SIXTH
     AMENDMENT. These parts are being deleted because LICENSOR has thus far been
     unable to locate,  and make  available  to  LICENSEE,  the GM TOOLS used to
     produce such LICENSED PARTS and LICENSEE is not currently manufacturing and
     selling such parts, nor does LICENSEE plan to do so in the future.

4.   Exhibit I of the AGREEMENT,  as amended,  is further amended to also delete
     the  LICENSED  PARTS  identified  on  ATTACHMENT  B to  this  TWENTY  SIXTH
     AMENDMENT.  These  parts are  currently  being sold by  LICENSEE;  however,
     LICENSEE is purchasing these parts from other General Motors licensees, and
     provided the parts remain officially licensed,  LICENSEE is not required to
     also be licensed on the parts and pay a royalty thereon.

5.   In accordance with Paragraph 8 of this TWENTY SIXTH AMENDMENT, LICENSEE and
     LICENSOR have identified the GM part numbers for additional  parts LICENSEE
     is currently selling. As a result, Exhibit I of the AGREEMENT,  as amended,
     is further amended to specifically  include the LICENSED PARTS MADE WITHOUT
     TOOLS,  as  first  referenced  in  the  SECOND  AMENDMENT,   identified  on
     ATTACHMENT C to this TWENTY SIXTH AMENDMENT.

6.   Exhibit III,  "ADVANCE ROYALTY" and "MINIMUM  GUARANTEED  ROYALTIES" of the
     AGREEMENT  are hereby  stricken in their  entirety  and are replaced by the
     following new sections:

         "ADVANCE ROYALTY

         Pursuant  to  Paragraphs  5.2 and 5.3,  LICENSEE  has paid  LICENSOR  a
         non-refundable  advance  royalty  ("Advance")  in the  amount  of  U.S.
         $1,000,000,  and such amount may be  credited  by LICENSEE  against Net
         Royalties  earned up through December 31, 1998. No carry-over of excess
         Net Sales (over the  Advance)  or  deficiency  of Net Sales  (under the
         Advance) into  subsequent  years within the Initial Term or any renewal
         term shall be allowed  except only as may be applicable  under "Minimum
         Guaranteed Royalties" below.

         MINIMUM GUARANTEED ROYALTIES

         The minimum annual royalty guarantees ("Guaranteed Minimum") to be paid
         by LICENSEE to LICENSOR shall be as follows:

         For the period December 1, 1993 through  December 31, 1998, there shall
         be no  Guaranteed  Minimum  due  LICENSOR  in  addition  to the Advance
         already  paid;  and For each twelve  month  period from January 1, 1999
         through December 31, 2001, and annually  thereafter  during any Renewal
         Term, the Guaranteed Minimum shall be $500,000;  provided,  however, if
         during  the  period of  December  1, 1993  through  December  31,  1998
         aggregate Net Royalties earned in the amount of at least $1,000,000 are
         not achieved,  then LICENSEE  shall be permitted to reduce the $500,000
         Guaranteed  Minimum for the period January 1, 1999 to December 31, 1999
         by an amount equal to the difference between the $1,000,000 Advance and
         actual Net Royalties earned up to a maximum of $350,000.

         The Guaranteed  Minimum  amounts due after January 1, 1999, are due and
         payable in equal  quarterly  installments  at the end of each  calendar
         quarter  within the  applicable  time period of the Initial Term or any
         Renewal  Term unless  otherwise  paid as Net  Royalties  or the Advance
         during such  period.  The  Guaranteed  Minimum  shall stand  alone.  No
         carry-over  of  excess  Net  Sales  (over the  Guaranteed  Minimum)  or
         deficiency of Net Sales (under the Guaranteed  Minimum) into subsequent
         time  periods  within  the Term or any  renewal  term  shall be allowed
         unless otherwise specifically noted above."

7.   Exhibit  III,  "ROYALTY  RATE" of the  AGREEMENT,  as amended by the SECOND
     AMENDMENT, is further amended as follows:

         "The parties  agree that the Net Royalty  Rate for LICENSED  PARTS MADE
         WITHOUT  TOOLS,  as referenced in the SECOND  AMENDMENT,  shall be five
         percent (5%) effective, retroactively,  October 1, 1996, as such is the
         date agreed to by the parties  that the parts were matched to a GM part
         number and entered by LICENSOR into its parts database."

8.   LICENSEE and LICENSOR will continue to work diligently to identify specific
     GM part numbers for  additional  parts which  LICENSEE is now selling which
     presently are not identified by a GM part number.  When  additional GM part
     numbers are  identified  for any such parts,  then the Net Royalty  Rate on
     such parts will  increase  from the two percent  (2%) rate to five  percent
     (5%) rate when the specific  part numbers are added to the  AGREEMENT by an
     amendment fully-executed by the parties.  Execution of such an amendment by
     the parties shall trigger the process for LICENSOR to add such part numbers
     to the GMSPO system.

9.   LICENSOR  will  continue  to  consider  requests  by  LICENSEE  to add more
     products as "GM  Official  Licensed  Products"  under the  AGREEMENT at the
     applicable eight percent (8%) royalty rate.

10.  In an effort to provide  further detail on LICENSEE'S  license rights under
     Exhibit I of the  AGREEMENT,  as amended,  LICENSEE shall have the Right of
     First  Refusal  on  the  GM  Catalog  Groups  specifically   identified  on
     ATTACHMENT D to this TWENTY SIXTH  AMENDMENT.  In the event LICENSOR learns
     during   the  Term  or  any   renewal   term   that   additional   GM  part
     numbers/products  in the  GM  Catalog  Groups  specifically  identified  on
     ATTACHMENT D to this TWENTY SIXTH AMENDMENT are  discontinued  and eligible
     for  licensing,  or a third  party  has made a bona  fide  offer to  become
     licensed on such GM part numbers/products, LICENSOR will advise LICENSEE of
     the  opportunity to exercise its Right of First Refusal and become licensed
     thereto;  LICENSEE shall  expressly  notify  LICENSOR in writing (within 15
     days of receiving notice from LICENSOR of the specific part  number/product
     license  opportunity)  of its intent to exercise its Right of First Refusal
     thereon.  If  exercised,  such part  numbers/products  will be added to the
     AGREEMENT by amendment.  LICENSEE'S  rejection of the right,  or failure to
     timely respond in writing,  shall allow LICENSOR to offer a license on such
     part numbers/products to a third party.

11.  Other than as specifically  set forth in this TWENTY SIXTH  AMENDMENT,  the
     AGREEMENT  remains  unchanged  and of full force and effect;  any  conflict
     between the AGREEMENT and this TWENTY SIXTH  AMENDMENT  shall be controlled
     by this TWENTY SIXTH AMENDMENT.
