Item 1.

The Issuer is a Delaware corporation and its principal executive offices are located at 45 Old Millstone Drive, Unit 6, East Windsor, NJ 08520.

Item 2.
Identity and Background.

(a)       The name of the person filing this statement is Qingtai Liu, hereafter sometimes referred to as the “Reporting Person.”

(b)       The Reporting Person’s address is c/o Weifang Shengtai Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd, Hi-Tech Industrial Park of Changle County, Shandong Province, the People’s Republic of China 262400.

(c)       The Reporting Person’s present occupation of Chief Executive Officer of Weifang Shengtai Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.

(d)        During the last five years, the Reporting Person has not been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors).

(e)        During the last five years, the Reporting Person has not been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, United States Federal or State securities laws or finding any violations with respect to such laws.

(f)        The Reporting Person is a citizen of the People’s Republic of China.

Item 3.
Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

On May 15, 2007, West Coast Car Company (the “Company”) entered into a share exchange agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) with the shareholders of Shengtai Holding, Inc. (“SHI”), a New Jersey corporation. Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, Messrs Qingtai Liu and Chenghai Du, shareholders of all the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of SHI, exchanged them for 9,125,000 newly-issued shares of the Company. The share exchange transaction closed on May 15, 2007.
 
 


Mr. Qingtai Liu became shareholder of 8,212,500 shares of common stock of the Company.

Item 4.
Purpose of Transaction.

The Company had, prior to closing on the Share Exchange Agreement, authorized (a) 100,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $.001 per share, of which 1,000,000 shares were issued and outstanding, all of which are duly authorized, validly issued and fully paid; and (b) 5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, $.001 par value, of which no shares are issued or outstanding.

As a result of the share exchange transaction, there had been a change in control in the Company as both Messrs Qingtai Liu and Chenghai Du constitute majority shareholders of the Company.

In connection with the closing of the Share Exchange Agreement, former directors of the Company, Mr. Daniel Drummond and Mr. Alex Ferries appointed Qingtai Liu as a Director of the Company, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, appointed Yongqiang Wang as director of the Company and submitted their resignation as directors and officers of the Company, subject to the filing and dissemination of Schedule 14f-1.

On May 4, 2007, the Company filed an information statement with the SEC relating to the change in control of its Board of Directors containing the information required under Rule 14f-1 of the Exchange Act and on May 4, 2007, the Company distributed that information statement to all holders of record of its common stock. As a result thereof, immediately after the closing of the Share Exchange Agreement and upon the expiration of the ten days from the mailing of the said information statement, there occurred a change in control in the Board of Directors as Messrs. Qingtai Liu and Yongqiang Wang have became the entire Board of Directors of the Company.
 
As a result of the changes in control, Messrs Qingtai Liu and Chengai Du were able to cause the Company to enter into and consummate a share purchase agreement (the “Share Purchase Agreement”) with nineteen accredited investors (the “Purchasers”). Pursuant to the Share Purchase Agreement, the Purchasers purchased from the Company an aggregate of 8,750,000 shares of common stock (the “Placement Shares”) and .5 attached warrants (the “Warrants”) for $2.00 per share (the “Issue Price”) and for a total of $17,500,000 (the “Total Issue Price”). The exercise price of the Warrants $2.60 per share and the term of the warrants is five years. The Share Purchase Agreement closed on May 15, 2007.
 
Additionally, because Weifang Shengtai Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd (“Weifang Shengtai”) is a wholly-owned subsidiary of SHI, Weifang Shengtai is now an indirect subsidiary of the Company. Because Weifang Shengtai is in the business of the manufacture and supply of medical grade glucose products as well as other glucose and starch products used for food, beverage and industrial production in the People’s Republic of China, the Company, by means of its acquisition of SHI, engaged in such business.
 
 

 
While the Company’s previous management did not previously indicate that the Company was a “shell company” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the Company’s new management believes that the Company, prior to the Share Exchange Agreement, qualified as a shell company. As a result of the above-referenced transactions, the Company has ceased being a shell company as such term is defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act.
 
Except as set forth herein, the Reporting Person has no other plans or proposals which would relate to or result in:
 
 
(a)
The acquisition by any person of additional securities of the Issuer, or the disposition of securities of the Issuer;
 
 
(b)
An extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries;
 
 
(c)
A sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries;
 
 
(d)
Any change in the present board of directors or management of the Issuer, including any plans or proposals to change the number or terms of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the board;
 
 
(e)
Any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer;
 
 
(f)
Any other material change in the Issuer’s business or corporate structure;
 
 
(g)
Changes in the Issuer’s charter, by-laws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person;
 
 
(h)
Causing a class of securities of the Issuer to be delisted from a national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association;
 
 
(i)
A class of equity securities of the Issuer becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended; or
 
 
(j)
Any action similar to any of those enumerated above.
 
 

 
The Reporting Person reserves the right from time to time to acquire or dispose of shares of Common Stock, or to formulate other purposes, plans or proposals regarding the Issuer or securities of the Issuer held by such Reporting Person to the extent deemed advisable in light of general investment policies, market conditions and other factors.
 
Item 5.
Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
 
(a) As of the date hereof, the Reporting Person beneficially owns 7,766,325 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock which represents approximately 41.15% of the Issuer’s outstanding common stock.

(b) The Reporting Person directly owns the 6,989,725 shares of Common Stock and has the sole power to vote or to direct the vote with respect to the 776,600 shares referred to herein.
 
(c) Except for the acquisition of 8,212,500 shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Stock Exchange Agreement and the concurrent divestment of an aggregate 1,222,775 shares of Common Stock to the Reporting Person’s wife, child, foreign finders and placement agent, no transactions in the Common Stock were effected during the past sixty days by the Reporting Person.
 
(d) To the best knowledge of the Reporting Person, no person other than the Reporting Person has the right to receive, or the power to direct the receipt of, dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of the 8,212,500 shares of Common Stock reported in Item 5(a).
 
(e) Not applicable.

Item 6.
Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

The Reporting Person entered into an agreement dated May 8, 2006 with the foreign finders and Hickey Turner Capital, Inc. in which the Reporting Person had agreed to transfer for the benefit of the foreign finders and Hickey Turner Capital, Inc. and/or its designees 446,175 shares of common stock in the Company for consulting services.

Section 3.6 Investment Representations. (a) The WCCC Shares will be acquired hereunder solely for the account of the SHAREHOLDERS, for investment, and not with a view to the resale or distribution thereof. Each SHAREHOLDER understands and is able to bear any economic risks associated with such SHAREHOLDER’S investment in the WCCC Shares. Each SHAREHOLDER has had full access to all the information such SHAREHOLDER considers necessary or appropriate to make an informed investment decision with respect to the WCCC Shares to be acquired under this Agreement. Each SHAREHOLDER further has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from WCCC’s directors regarding WCCC and to obtain additional information (to the extent WCCC’s directors possessed such information or could acquire it without unreasonable effort or expense) necessary to verify any information furnished to such SHAREHOLDER or to which such SHAREHOLDER had access. Each SHAREHOLDER is at the time of the offer and execution of this Agreement, domiciled and resident outside the United States (a “PRC Shareholder”) and is an “accredited investor” (as such term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act).

(b) No PRC Shareholder, nor any affiliate of any PRC Shareholder, nor any person acting on behalf of any PRC Shareholder or any behalf of any such affiliate, has engaged or will engage in any activity undertaken for the purpose of, or that reasonably could be expected to have the effect of, conditioning the markets in the United States for the WCCC Shares, including, but not limited to, effecting any sale or short sale of securities through any PRC Shareholder or any of affiliate of any PRC Shareholder prior to the expiration of any restricted period contained in Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act (any such activity being defined herein as a “Directed Selling Effort”). To the best knowledge of each of the PRC Shareholders, this Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein are not part of a plan or scheme to evade the registration provisions of the Securities Act, and the WCCC Shares are being acquired for investment purposes by the PRC Shareholders. Each PRC Shareholder agrees that all offers and sales of WCCC Shares from the date hereof and through the expiration of the any restricted period set forth in Rule 903 of Regulation S (as the same may be amended from time to time hereafter) shall not be made to U.S. Persons or for the account or benefit of U.S. Persons and shall otherwise be made in compliance with the provisions of Regulation S and any other applicable provisions of the Securities Act. Neither any PRC Shareholder nor the representatives of any PRC Shareholder have conducted any Directed Selling Effort as that term is used and defined in Rule 902 of Regulation S and no PRC Shareholder nor any representative of any PRC Shareholder will engage in any such Directed Selling Effort within the United States through the expiration of any restricted period set forth in Rule 903 of Regulation S.

Section 3.9 Survival. Each of the representations and warranties set forth in this Article III shall be deemed represented and made by SHI and the SHAREHOLDERS at the Closing as if made at such time and shall survive the Closing for a period terminating on the second anniversary of the date of this Agreement.
