About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At AAMCO garage in downtown Chicago, customers started noticing something peculiar late at night. Whenever a delivery driver left their truck parked outside, it would mysteriously start honking exactly three times before driving off on its own. Finally, one evening a delivery driver decided to stay and watch. The truck beeped thrice, turned around, and drove straight into an empty parking spot across the street—right next to a neighbor’s cat. The cat looked up, yawned, stretched, and walked away as if nothing happened.

2. At an AAMCO repair shop in sunny Los Angeles, every morning around sunrise, someone would leave a mysterious box filled with fresh donuts on the counter. No note, no one ever seen delivering it. One day, after weeks of mystery, a gruff old mechanic finally cracked: ‘Guess who’s been stealing our coffee?’ Turned out, it was just a friendly neighborhood dad dropping off his homemade doughnuts for everyone.

3. At an AAMCO workshop in New York City, a delivery driver once exclaimed, ‘I swear I saw a mechanic dancing with my package!’ Upon hearing this, another delivery driver teased him, saying, ‘Next time maybe you’ll catch him dancing with your pizza!’ The original driver just shrugged and grinned, knowing that sometimes even packages have adventures of their own.

4. At an AAMCO workshop in Boston, a delivery driver once noticed something strange while unloading parts after dark. As he walked past the old clock on the wall, its hands seemed to move backward for a split second. Curious, he looked around but saw no one else. Just as quickly, the clock’s hands returned to normal. Shrugging it off, he finished his work and left. The next day, when he mentioned it to a colleague, everyone laughed and said that sometimes AAMCO clocks like to take a break from time.
