About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Anaheim Radiator & Auto Repair with an unusual cargo: a vintage radiator humming like an old blues guitar. The sound carried through the workshop's open doors, drawing curious glances from mechanics who had never heard anything quite like it. One mechanic leaned in closer, whispering, ‘It’s singing “Take Me Home, Country Roads”!’ Another shook his head and said, ‘Nah, sounds more like “I’ll Fly Away.”’ They worked late into the night, eventually restoring the ancient radiator to its former glory. The next morning, they presented it to their surprised customer—a neighbor who’d always dreamed of owning such a piece. He smiled broadly, saying, “Thanks, guys—now my garage feels like a real honky-tonk!”
2. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Anaheim Radiator & Auto Repair. The neon sign flickered ominously as he stepped inside. On the counter lay an old, rusted keyring—clearly not theirs. The mechanic picked it up and said, ‘Hey, looks like someone’s been leaving their keys here.’ Just then, a sleepy neighbor walked in, rubbing his eyes. ‘Oh no,’ he groaned, ‘I must’ve left my house unlocked again!’ Everyone laughed, and the next morning, a new sign appeared outside: ‘Anaheim Radiator & Auto Repair – We Fix More Than Cars!’
3. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Anaheim Radiator & Auto Repair. The mechanic inside glanced outside and saw something unusual: the driver’s headlights seemed to flicker on and off in rhythm with the radio playing inside. The mechanic shrugged it off as an odd coincidence and went back to work. Later that night, while finishing repairs, he heard someone knocking gently on the door. It was just a neighbor, checking if everything was okay because his porch light had also been mysteriously flashing along with the same tune. Everyone agreed it must’ve been some kind of cosmic radioactive headlight alignment.
4. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Anaheim Radiator & Auto Repair. ‘Hey,’ he called out, ‘anyone here know how to fix a radiator that’s been runnin’ hotter than California in July?’ Inside, an old mechanic with grease-stained overalls scratched his head and replied, 'Well, sonny, I might be able to help ya. But first, you gotta tell me—do you know where you're going?' The driver looked puzzled, then realized he'd parked in front of the wrong shop. A neighbor chuckled from behind him: 'Next time, try the liquor store down the street!'
