                         ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS

                                 AUGUST 3, 2001
                          -----------------------------


         This Proxy Statement is furnished to the shareholders of LandStar,
Inc., a Nevada corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the solicitation
of proxies to be used in voting at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held
on August 3, 2001, and at any adjournment or postponement thereof (the "Annual
Meeting"). The enclosed proxy is being solicited by the Company's Board of
Directors. This Proxy Statement and the enclosed proxy will be first sent or
given to the Company's shareholders on approximately July 13, 2001.

         The Company will bear the cost of the solicitation of proxies,
including the charges and expenses of brokerage firms and others for forwarding
solicitation material to beneficial owners of stock. Representatives of the
Company may solicit proxies by mail, telegram, telephone, fax, or personal
interview.

         The shares represented by the accompanying proxy will be voted as
directed if the proxy is properly signed and received by the Company prior to
the meeting. If no directions are made to the contrary, the proxy will be voted
FOR the nominees for director named herein and FOR approval and adoption of the
amendment to the Articles of Incorporation, and, at the discretion of the
persons acting under the proxy, to transact such other business as may come
before the meeting or any adjournment thereof. Any shareholder giving a proxy
has the power to revoke it at any time before it is exercised by filing a
written notice with the Secretary of the Company prior to the meeting.
Shareholders who attend the meeting may vote in person and their proxies will
not be used.

         Holders of record of our common stock, at the close of business on June
20, 2001, will be entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. At that time, we had
47,355,824 shares of our common stock outstanding and entitled to vote. Each
share of our common stock outstanding on the record date entitles the holder to
one vote on each matter submitted at the Annual Meeting.

         A majority of the outstanding shares of the Company entitled to vote,
represented in person or by proxy, is necessary to constitute a quorum for the
transaction of business at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes
are counted for purposes of determining the presence or absence of a quorum.
Broker non-votes occur when brokers, who hold their customers' shares in street
name, sign and submit proxies for such shares and vote such shares on some
matters, but not others. Typically, this would occur when brokers have not
received any instructions from their customers, in which case the brokers, as
the holders of record, are permitted to vote on "routine" matters, which include
the election of directors.

         The election of the director nominees requires the favorable vote of a
plurality of all votes cast by the holders of our common stock at a meeting at
which a quorum is present. Proxies that are marked "Withhold Authority For Each
Nominee" and broker non-votes will not be counted toward such nominee's
achievement of a plurality and thus will have no effect. The affirmative vote of
holders of a majority of the common shares outstanding and entitled to vote at
the meeting is necessary to approve and adopt the amendment to the Articles of
Incorporation. Each other matter to be submitted to the shareholders for
approval or ratification at the Annual

                                      -1-
   5

Meeting requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of our common
stock present and entitled to vote on the matter. For purposes of determining
the number of shares of our common stock voting on the matter, abstentions will
be counted and will have the effect of a negative vote; broker non-votes will
not be counted and thus will have no effect.


                              ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

         The Company's By-Laws provide that the number of directors shall be
fixed by the Board. The total number of authorized directors currently is fixed
at six. The nominees for directors, if elected, will serve for one-year terms
expiring at the next Annual Meeting of Shareholders.

         Carl Buccellato, D. Elroy Fimrite, Ian Hadfield, Daniel N. McVicker,
Philip Pimlott and Scott Randolph currently serve as directors of the Company
and are being nominated by the Board of Directors for re-election as directors.

         It is intended that, unless otherwise directed, the shares represented
by the enclosed proxy will be voted FOR the election of Messrs. Buccellato,
Fimrite, Hadfield, McVicker, Pimlott and Randolph as directors. In the event
that any nominee for director should become unavailable, the number of directors
of the Company may be decreased pursuant to the By-Laws or the Board of
Directors may designate a substitute nominee, in which event the shares
represented by the enclosed proxy will be voted for such substitute nominee.

         THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT THE SHAREHOLDERS VOTE FOR THE
ELECTION OF THE NOMINEES FOR DIRECTOR.

                      OPTION/SAR GRANTS IN LAST FISCAL YEAR

         The Company has no stock option or stock appreciation rights plans in
place currently. Therefore, there were no options or rights granted during the
year 2000.


                              EMPLOYMENT CONTRACTS

         The Company entered into employment agreements with Mr. Elles on August
15, 2000, and Messrs. Jones, McVicker, Pimlott and Fimrite on June 11, 2001
(which were effective as of January 1, 2001). Each of these employment
agreements has a five year term, and provides for a base salary which is subject
to annual review and increases. Effective January 1, 2001, Mr. Elles's base
salary was adjusted to $132,000 to align his compensation with other members of
the senior management team. The employment agreements also provide for each
executive's continued participation in any bonus plans and senior management
stock option plans approved by the Board of Directors.

         In the event of termination by the Company without Cause (as defined in
the employment agreements), and, in the case of Mr. Pimlott, in the event of a
change in control or sale of the Company, the Company shall provide payment to
the executive of (i) the earned but unpaid portion of his base salary through
the termination date, and (ii) base salary for an additional 12 months in the
case of Mr. Pimlott, and base salary for an additional 24 months for Messrs.
Elles, Jones, McVicker and Fimrite.

         Under the employment agreements for Messrs. Elles, Jones, McVicker and
Fimrite, in the event of a Change in Control (as defined below) or sale of the
Company, the executive shall be entitled to receive 2.99 times his base salary
as severance.

         Except for Mr. Pimlott's employment agreement, for purposes of the
employment agreements described above, a "Change in Control" includes the
occurrence of any of the following events:

         -        any person or group becoming the beneficial owner of 50% or
                  more of the total voting power of the Company's outstanding
                  securities ordinarily having the right to vote for the
                  election of directors of the Company;

         -        as a result of any tender or exchange offer, merger or
                  business combination, or contested election, or any
                  combination thereof, the owners of the voting shares of the
                  Company outstanding immediately prior to such transaction
                  owning less than a majority of the voting shares of the
                  Company after such transaction;

         -        during any period of two consecutive years, individuals who at
                  the beginning of such period constitute the Board of Directors
                  of the Company (or who take office following the approval of a
                  majority of the

                                      -6-
   10

                  directors then in office who were directors at the beginning
                  of the period) ceasing for any reason to constitute at least
                  one-half thereof; or

         -        the sale, exchange, transfer or other disposition of all or
                  substantially all of the assets of the Company.

         Under Mr. Pimlott's employment agreement, a change in control of the
Company is deemed to occur upon the sale of substantially all of the assets of
the Company to another purchaser, the sale of two-thirds (2/3) of the
outstanding shares of the Company, the termination or liquidation of the
business of the Company, or the consolidation or merger that results in the
Company's shareholders receiving less than 50% of the outstanding voting shares
of the new or continuing entity.


              CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

CAREY HOLDINGS, LTD.

         The Company leases approximately 3,300 square feet of office space in
Victoria, British Columbia from Carey Holdings, Ltd. Mr. Fimrite's immediate
family owns and controls 100% of Carey Holdings, Ltd. The lease agreement,
effective January 1, 2000, is for a term of five years and expires December 31,
2004. The Company pays approximately $4,727 per month for rent. The building is
a multi-tenant facility and the rent paid by the Company is the same paid by
other tenants in comparable space. The Company believes the terms of the lease
are at least as favorable as they could obtain from an independent third party.


             SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

         Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the
Company's officers, directors and greater than 10% shareholders to file reports
of ownership and changes in ownership of the Company's securities with the
Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Copies of the reports are required
by SEC regulation to be furnished to the Company. Based on its review of such
reports, the Company believes that all reporting persons complied with all
filing requirements during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2000, except for
late Forms 3 for all executive officers and directors. A Form 4 for Philip
Pimlott and Dr. Ian Hadfield were also filed late.


        AMENDMENT TO ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF
        AUTHORIZED SHARES OF COMMON STOCK AND AUTHORIZE PREFERRED STOCK

         Our Articles of Incorporation currently authorizes us to issue up to
100,000,000 shares of common stock, $.001 par value. Our Board of Directors has
adopted, subject to shareholder approval, an amendment to our Articles of
Incorporation to increase the authorized number of shares of our common stock
from 100,000,000 shares to 500,000,000 shares, and to authorize the issuance of
150,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $.01 par value.

         Under the amendment, Article FOURTH of the amended Articles of
Incorporation would read:

                  FOURTH. (a) The total number of shares of common stock
                  authorized that may be issued by the Corporation is FIVE
                  HUNDRED MILLION (500,000,000) shares of stock with a ONE TENTH
                  OF A CENT ($0.001) par value. Said shares may be issued by the
                  Corporation from time to time for such consideration as may be
                  fixed by the Board of Directors.

                  (b) The total number of shares of preferred stock authorized
                  that may be issued by the Corporation is ONE HUNDRED FIFTY
                  MILLION (150,000,000) shares of stock with a ONE CENT ($0.01)
                  par value. Said shares may be issued from time to time by the
                  Board of Directors in one or

                                      -7-
   11

                  more series. The Board of Directors is expressly authorized to
                  establish from time to time by resolution or resolutions the
                  number of shares to be included in each such series and to fix
                  the designation, powers, preferences, and relative
                  participating, optional, conversion and other special rights
                  of the shares of each such series and the qualifications,
                  limitations, or restrictions thereof, including, but not
                  limited to the fixing of dividend rights, rates, preferences
                  and other terms; redemption rights, prices and other terms
                  (including any sinking fund provisions); conversion rights,
                  prices, or rates of exchange, and other terms,; liquidation
                  preferences and other terms; and voting rights in addition to
                  any voting rights provided by law, and other terms, which may
                  be general or limited, all to the fullest extent now or
                  hereafter permitted under the General Corporation Law of the
                  State of Nevada,; and to increase or decrease the number of
                  shares of any series subsequent to the issue of shares of that
                  series (but not below the number of shares of such series then
                  outstanding). In case the number of shares of any series shall
                  be so decreased, the shares constituting such decrease shall
                  resume the status which they had prior to the adoption of the
                  resolution originally fixing the number of shares of such
                  series.

         As of April 30, 2001, of the 100,000,000 shares of common stock
presently authorized, 46,681,424 shares were issued and outstanding. No
preferred stock is presently authorized by the Company's Articles of
Incorporation.

         If the proposed amendment is approved, the Board of Directors would be
empowered, without the necessity of further action or authorization by the
Company's shareholders (unless such action or authorization is required in a
specific case by applicable laws or regulations or stock exchange rules), to
authorize the issuance of common stock and to authorize the issuance of
preferred stock from time to time, in one or more series or classes, and to fix
by resolution the designations, preferences, limitations, and relative rights of
each such series or class. Each series or class of preferred stock could, as
determined by the Board of Directors at the time of issuance, rank with respect
to dividends and redemption and liquidation rights, senior to the Company's
shares of common stock.

          The additional shares may be used by the Company for any proper
corporate purpose. Such purpose might include, without limitation, issuance as
part or all of the consideration required to be paid, by the Company in the
acquisition of other businesses or properties, or issuance in public or private
sales for cash as a means of obtaining additional capital for use in the
Company's business and operations. There are no transactions, other than the
finalization of the acquisition of PolyTek Rubber & Recycling, Inc., that are
under review by the Board of Directors, which contemplate the issuance of
shares.

          It is not possible to state the precise effects of the authorization
of the preferred stock upon the rights of the holders of the Company's common
stock until the Board of Directors determines the respective preferences,
limitations and relative rights of the holders of each class or series of the
preferred stock. However, such effects might include: (a) reduction of the
amount otherwise available for payment of dividends on common stock, to the
extent dividends are payable on any issued preferred stock; (b) restrictions on
dividends on the common stock; (c) dilution of the voting power of the common
stock to the extent that the preferred stock had voting rights; (d) conversion
of the preferred stock into common stock at such price as the Board determines,
which could include issuance at below the fair market value or original issue
price of the common stock; and (e) the holders of common stock not being
entitled to share in the Company's assets upon liquidation until satisfaction of
any liquidation preferences granted to holders of the preferred stock.

          Although the Board of Directors would authorize the issuance of
additional shares based on its judgment as to the best interest of the Company
and its shareholders, the issuance of authorized shares could have the effect of
diluting the voting power per share and could have the effect of diluting the
book value per share of the outstanding common stock. In addition, the preferred
stock could, in certain instances, render more difficult or discourage a merger,
tender offer or proxy contest and thus potentially have an "anti-takeover"
effect, especially if shares of the preferred stock were issued in response to a
potential takeover. In addition, issuances of authorized shares of

                                      -8-
   12

preferred stock can be implemented, and have been implemented by some companies
in recent years, with voting or conversion privileges intended to make an
acquisition of the Company more difficult or more costly. Such an issuance could
deter the types of transactions which may be proposed or could discourage or
limit the shareholders' participation in certain types of transactions that
might be proposed (such as a tender offer), whether or not such transactions
were favored by the majority of the shareholders, and could enhance the ability
of officers and directors to retain their positions.

          The affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the shares of the
Company's common stock outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting is
required to approve the proposed amendment. If this proposal is approved, it
will become effective upon the filing of the Certificate of Amendment to
Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of Nevada, which the
Company intends to make on August 6, 2001, the next business day after the
completion of the Annual Meeting. If the proposal is not approved by the
shareholders, the Company's Articles of Incorporation, in their current form
will continue in effect.

           THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE "FOR" APPROVAL AND
     ADOPTION OF THE COMPANY'S AMENDMENT TO THE ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION.


                         INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

          The Board of Directors has appointed Hein + Associates LLP,
independent public accountants, as auditors for the Company for the 2001 fiscal
year. Hein + Associates LLP served as the independent auditors for the Company
for the 2000 fiscal year and throughout the periods covered by the Company's
financial statements. Representatives of Hein + Associates LLP are expected to
attend the Annual Meeting of Shareholders in order to respond to questions from
shareholders, and they will have an opportunity to make a statement.


  FEES OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2000

AUDIT FEES

         The aggregate fees billed by Hein + Associates LLP for professional
services for the audit of the Company's 2000 financial statements totaled
$10,209.

ALL OTHER FEES

         The aggregate fees billed by Hein + Associates LLP for services
rendered to the Company, other than the services described under "Audit Fees"
for the year ended December 31, 2000, were $5,470. The Board of Directors has
considered whether the rendering of such non-audit services by Hein +
Associates LLP is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant's
independence.


                  SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS FOR 2002 ANNUAL MEETING

         Each year the Board of Directors submits its nominations for election
of directors at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders. Other proposals may be
submitted by the Board of Directors or the shareholders for inclusion in the
Proxy Statement for action at the annual meeting. Any proposal submitted by a
shareholder for inclusion in the Proxy Statement for the annual meeting of
shareholders to be held in 2002 must be received by the Company (addressed to
the attention of the Secretary) on or before January 15, 2002. Any shareholder
proposal submitted outside the processes of Rule 14a-8 under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 for presentation at our 2002 annual meeting will be
considered untimely for purposes of Rule 14a-4 and 14a-5, if notice thereof is
received by the Company after March 6, 2002. To be submitted at the meeting, any
such proposal must be a proper subject for shareholder action under the laws of
the State of Nevada.

                              SOLICITATION EXPENSES

              The cost of this solicitation will be paid by the Company. In
addition to the solicitation of proxies by mail, the directors, officers and
employees of the Company may solicit proxies personally or by telephone. The
Company may request persons holding shares in their names for others to forward
soliciting materials to their principals to obtain authorization for the
execution of proxies, and the Company may reimburse such persons for their
expenses in doing so.


                                  ANNUAL REPORT

         The Company's annual report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2000, containing financial statements for such year and the signed
opinion of Hein + Associates LLP, independent auditors, with respect to such
financial statements, is being sent to shareholders concurrently with this Proxy
Statement. The Form 10-KSB is not to be regarded as proxy soliciting material,
and management does not intend to ask, suggest or solicit any action from the
shareholders with respect to such report.


                                  OTHER MATTERS

         The Board of Directors knows of no other matters to be brought before
the Annual Meeting. However, if other matters should come before the meeting,
each of the persons named in the proxy intends to vote in accordance with his
judgement on such matters.
