About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a little boy walking home from school noticed something strange. As he passed Spangler Bros Auto Body, his dog started barking uncharacteristically loud and long, pointing its nose towards the shop’s entrance. Curious, the boy approached the shop and saw an old radio playing in the open garage door. The music was so loud it drowned out the dog's barking. Turns out, an elderly mechanic named 'a regular' had left the radio on full blast while working late. Since then, whenever someone mentions Spangler Bros Auto Body, everyone jokes that it's where even dogs dance to the tune of classic rock.

2. One day, after closing hours, an old dog wandered into Spangler Bros Auto Body. He sniffed around curiously and then sat down next to a freshly painted car. Suddenly, the car’s door opened slightly, startling both the dog and a nearby mechanic. The mechanic cautiously approached, thinking maybe it was just some prank. But as he got closer, the car gently nudged the old dog with its open door, sending him tumbling onto his back in surprise. Everyone burst out laughing—even the usually gruff owner of Spangler Bros Auto Body joined in. That night, word spread quickly through town that if your car ever needed a friendly nudge, you knew where to bring it.

3. One night, as a mechanic was finishing up some repairs, he heard an odd announcement over the workshop’s intercom: ‘Attention, all mechanics—your cars are ready for pickup!’ Curious, our mechanic rushed outside and found himself standing in front of three identical cars—his own and two other ones, both driven by smiling strangers who introduced themselves as brothers from out of town. They explained they were just passing through and needed their vehicles fixed too. After much laughter and confusion, everyone drove off happily, leaving behind only a note that read: 'Thanks for the quick service!'

4. One afternoon, while customers were waiting for their cars to be fixed, someone left a mysterious note on the workshop door. It read: ‘Your vehicle is ready when you least expect it.’ Soon enough, an old neighbor walked in and asked if anyone had seen his car. Turns out he’d parked it there weeks ago after a minor scratch—and completely forgot about it! Everyone burst into laughter as they watched him drive off, waving goodbye to his long-lost ride.
