Ummm....Jac Nasser and Bill Ford aren't exactly best buds. Jac was unceremoniously kicked out when Bill wanted to take over and that has never sat well with Jac. Bill blames Jac for all of Fords problems including UAW / PAG etc.. I am pretty sure there is going to be no tilting due to "contacts" and "source" in this situation. What will take it is the most cash on the table and that where OEP has the upper hand.
