Probably runs Mansion Decorating, Wallpapering, etc...like he always has. I sure would like to hear from him. Carl said in the interview that he talks to him about once a month.

Yup, that's me. Huh. I totally forgot about that. Crazy that you found it. Even upon re-reading it, I don't remember writing it. I did find an email address for Thee, some time ago, but I never tried to email him. I think I talked (via email) to Josh (maybe?) about it, and he said he would try to contact him. But I've heard no more.
And by all means, yes, post the info on Foster Price as well!

Well my friend races at Wake County, and just FYI Randy Renfrow also races there. I think he still runs the Super Late Models, I'll ask Robert. I know he led the points for most of the season a few years back, but ended up second i believe. Anyway, my step dad use to work right near the old shop on Capital Blvd just north of I-540 here in Raleigh. He actualy got me Randy's autograph when he drove for them in 2002 I believe? I got to talking to my step dad a few days ago when I found the postcard with Randy's autograph, and he said he didnt believe they had anything left in the shop race car wise.  He said that one Intrepid car's body they had was outside the shop for months, and they finaly put it up for sale. To be honest, I dont know what they are doing now. My step dad left the Ford Dealership he was with about a year ago. I could ride up there sometime and check if you guys want. Its really not that far from here. I will say its dissapointing to hear that they are most likely done. Next to Joe Nemecheck's BUSCH Series Promotional Show Car shop here in Raleigh, Foster's Auto Body was right near my house. I thought the #59 Check into Cash car was one of the best schemes ever. Same for Mansion's place. I never personally went Mansion's place in Durham on 70, but I know people who did. I wonder if its still there (Anyone know). My step dad knows how to get to both places so I may can convince him to drive me around some this week. Im just sad both teams fell through wish I could have done something to help being so close.

Yeah, I'm not surprised the Foster Price deal fell through. It's a shame though. One of the few teams that was actually started by somebody who knew something about cars and not a businessman/athlete trying to make a fortune.

A little update on Foster Price. My step dad said he painted his old Corvette a few years back. He is supposed to be like one of the best painters around the area. He also said he ode by there and the only thing racing wise he saw was a Ford Mustang(Drag Racing Car). Pretty sure they are done. Just a little FYI.

I wonder about all those people, especially Mr. Dixon.
I thought about riding by there this summer, just to see what is going on. I will let you guys know if I do.
