About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, an old pickup truck pulled into Southwest Body Shop with its hood up. A delivery driver emerged, muttering under his breath as he unlocked the door. Inside, on top of a freshly painted shelf, sat a small wooden sign reading 'Lucky Day'. The delivery driver glanced at the sign and muttered, ‘Today’s my lucky day alright—nothing broke down today!’ As he bent over to grab some tools, he accidentally knocked over a jar filled with spare change. Out popped a wrinkled twenty-dollar bill that had been lost for months. The neighbor passing by whistled, smiling, “Guess that Lucky Day sign really works!”
2. One day, a delivery driver walked into Southwest Body Shop and announced over the intercom: ‘Attention all mechanics—we’ve got a new customer who insists on waiting for his oil change while wearing only flip-flops!’ The mechanics looked at each other with raised eyebrows but shrugged it off. Soon enough, an elderly gentleman entered, smiling broadly, still in his sandals. He introduced himself as 'a regular' and explained he always came here because 'the atmosphere is like family.' The mechanics laughed and welcomed him warmly, realizing that sometimes the best customers are those who make you smile.
3. A customer stormed into the Southwest Body Shop one afternoon, yelling, ‘I can’t believe you fixed my car wrong again!’ The mechanic scratched his head in confusion, replying, ‘But sir, we’ve never seen your car before.’ The old man glared suspiciously for a moment, then broke out laughing. ‘That’s because I brought the wrong car,’ he said. ‘This is my neighbor’s truck.’ A embarrassed silence followed, broken only by the sound of a nearby delivery driver whispering, ‘Dude, that was your truck!’
4. One night, a neighborhood kid ran up to the Southwest Body Shop and asked, 'Do you fix cars here or just their dreams?' The old man behind the counter smiled and replied, ‘We fix cars, son—dreams are our specialty!’ That’s when an exhausted delivery driver walked in, muttering, “Finally found someone who fixes both!”
