About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to TX 66 Autos and noticed an odd sound coming from under the hood of a vintage car. As he leaned in closer, he smelled something peculiar—a faint whiff of bacon frying. Curious, he reached for his phone and called out to a nearby mechanic, who happened to be a regular customer named Joe. Together they popped open the bonnet—and there, nestled between the engine parts, was a small pan filled with sizzling bacon. Turns out, someone had left it behind while fixing their classic ride. The delivery guy laughed, shook his head, and joked, ‘Guess that’s what you get when you leave breakfast in your car!’

2. One afternoon, a delivery driver pulled up to TX 66 Autos with a box of new tires. As he stepped out, an old man in overalls called across the lot: ‘Hey, kid! Don’t you know these tires are cursed? They make cars go faster than they should!’ The driver laughed it off, but that night, his own car seemed to have taken on a life of its own… The next morning, everyone at the garage was laughing when the delivery driver showed up again—this time pushing his car. It turned out the tires had made him go so fast he’d driven right through the gas station next door! A neighbor later joked, ‘Maybe those tires were just too good for slowpoke here.’

3. A curious neighbor stopped by one day and asked: ‘Why does it smell like old tires whenever I drive past that garage?’ The owner smiled sheepishly and replied, 'Oh, that's just our secret ingredient—old tire essence! It helps with attracting classic cars.' The neighbor shook his head, smiling, and drove off, never realizing he’d become part of TX 66’s unique marketing strategy.

4. One night, a delivery driver pulled up to TX 66 Autos with a box of tires. As he unloaded them from the truck, he noticed something odd in the backseat—a small, dusty teddy bear wearing a Texas Rangers jersey. The delivery driver picked it up curiously and placed it on the counter. Later that evening, as he was leaving, his neighbor stopped by for some oil. ‘Did you see that teddy bear?’ she asked, pointing at the door. The delivery guy smiled sheepishly and replied, ‘Nah, didn’t notice anything.’ That’s when they both heard a faint cheering coming from inside the empty garage.
