The shop owned by Paul Walker and Roger Rodas is shutting its doors after both men were killed in a violent car crash last month.

"Always Evolving," the performance and racing shop in Valencia, CA, is expected to close for business in the next few weeks. People who helped run the shop have already left and are looking for new jobs.

The shop itself is being cleaned out, and the cars in-house will be auctioned off.

A sad tale for all concerned.

unbelievable. You would think that after a billion dollars the Fast and Furious studio/producers/etc. would keep it going in his memory. Or at least looks for interested partners. A billion dollars...

Why would the producers give two licks about their race shop. Now keep the non profit foundation going or something worthwhile.

Sell everything off and donate the money to one of the many charities Paul was involved with. Hopefully it's no to difficult to setup the sale so all money goes to charity and not the government.

Why should they? I think if they donate to his charity, they are doing enough. Making movies is a big enough risk. Don't need to adding a shop that they know nothing about.

You were for the TARP fund weren't you

The producers could care less what an actor does with his money after the show. They were bothered enough that they had to shut the last one down and pay everyone to travel home, and some of the deals were pay or play for the full show. His death probably cost them at least a couple million on the film they were already shooting.

Sad.

I'm sure the producers care deeply about that loss, but they're not in the business of running a shop, either. I feel horrible for everyone who works there, regardless.

I'm not so sure the FF franchise has anything to do with this business. It's probably an estate decision for both to liquidate.
