Item 8.01 Other Events.

     Collins Industries, Inc., a Missouri corporation (the "Company"), held a
Special Meeting of Shareholders on January 19, 2006 at 10:00 a.m., Central
Standard Time, at which time the shareholders voted in favor of a reverse stock
split of the outstanding shares of the Company's common stock (the "Common
Stock") in a ratio of 1-for-300, immediately followed by a forward stock split
of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock in a ratio of 300-for-1 (the
"Reverse/Forward Stock Split"). The proposal passed with a majority vote of the
holders of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock. The aggregate number of
shares of Common Stock represented in person or by proxy at the Special Meeting
represented 74.32% of the 6,633,013 issued and outstanding shares of Common
Stock and constituted a quorum for the transaction of business.

     The Reverse/Forward Stock Split became effective upon the filing of the
Certificates of Amendment to the Company's Articles of Incorporation on January
19, 2006 with the Missouri Secretary of State. Each shareholder holding fewer
than 300 shares of Common Stock immediately prior to the effectiveness of the
reverse stock split (the "Cashed Out Shareholders") had such shares cancelled
and converted into the right to receive $7.70 for each share of Common Stock
held immediately prior to the reverse stock split. The number of shares of
Common Stock held by each shareholder holding 300 or more shares of Common Stock
prior to the reverse stock split (the "Continuing Shareholders") remains
unchanged after the consummation of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split. The
Company's exchange agent will send a letter of transmittal to the Cashed Out
Shareholders and Continuing Shareholders with instructions for exchanging their
Common Stock certificates for cash or new stock certificates, as the case may
be.

     As a result of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split, the Company has fewer than
300 record holders of its Common Stock, permitting the Company to terminate the
registration of its Common Stock with the Securities and Exchange Commission
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Concurrently with the
filing of this Form 8-K, the Company is filing for termination of such
registration. The press release is furnished under Item 9.01 of this Form 8-K as
Exhibit 99.1, which is incorporated by reference herein.

Item 9.01  Financial Statements and Exhibits.
