About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Apex Body Works and asked, ‘Hey, do you guys ever see ghostly figures in your rearview mirrors?’ The mechanic looked puzzled but shrugged it off. Over the next few days, more drivers mentioned seeing strange shadows or blurry shapes out of their windows. Finally, one evening, an old neighbor popped in and said, 'You know, I used to work at the old factory across the street—ghosts, my foot! Just some mischievous mechanics from back then!' Everyone laughed, and the legend faded away like a bad headlight on foggy night.

2. At dawn, when most mechanics were still stretching in their pajamas, an old Ford pickup rolled into Apex Body Works. The mechanic on duty scratched his head as he studied the truck’s unusual paint job—an intricate pattern of tiny stars that seemed to move whenever someone walked past. Suddenly, the stars began spelling out ‘Thank you for your patience’ in perfect English. Everyone burst out laughing, realizing it was just reflective tape from a local sign-making shop. The regulars at Apex Body Works never forgot that morning—they even started calling it ‘the talking truck.’

3. One day, a curious neighbor walked into Apex Body Works and asked, 'Why does your sign say "Alignment & Magic Spells"?' The mechanic grinned sheepishly and replied, ‘Well, see, sometimes cars need both!’ The neighbor shook his head with a smile, knowing better than to ask any more questions. After all, it’s not every day you hear someone advertise magic spells for alignment.

4. At midnight, when the city slept, a mechanic heard a soft hum coming from Apex Body Works. Curious, he peeked inside and saw a neon sign glowing eerily over the workshop’s entrance. The mechanic followed the light, stepping inside cautiously. Suddenly, an old delivery driver emerged from behind a pile of tires, muttering something about his headlights being too bright. Turns out, the neon sign was just reflecting off his truck's headlamps. Everyone had a good laugh, and the legend of Apex Body Works lived on—just another urban tale for late-night coffee.
