Mr 70, I am sure that is who you are looking for, at about the same time that Otis Chandler was on the top of the heap for Muscle car collectors, Carl D was also. I will try to get you his number and PM it to you.

Did Carl D sell off all his cars?
wasn't he was on a magazine cover calling him "King of the Yenkos" or something close and had something like 20 Yenkos?

I think that was Cliff E. on the cover of Super Chevy as 'King of the Yenko's!

Both Dwiggins and Ernst are in TN and not NC. Carl D. did sell many of his cars years ago. Last I heard, he was messing with trucks. Cliff E. is still active with his Yenkos'.

Not sure about a collector in the Charlotte area that owns' a Capt. D. chain. Contact Floyd Garrett at www.musclecarmuseum.com Floyd may know the person that your trying to find.

mr70 do you know Gilbert Propes? Year One hails him "THE Restoration Icon". He does alot of cars for Milt Robson and is a close friend of mine here in Georgia. I'll ask if he knows of a Capt. D's owner that has a collection.
