About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Bostig’s garage and noticed something peculiar on the workshop counter—a small, dusty box wrapped in old newspaper. Curious, he picked it up and found an ancient coin inside, dated long before the shop had opened. The delivery driver took out his phone and snapped a photo of the coin for fun, then placed everything back where he found it. Later that day, while fixing a neighbor's car, Bostig mentioned the strange discovery over coffee. It turned into a weekly tradition—everyone bringing odd finds from their cars or deliveries to share with each other. And so, Bostig’s became not just a repair shop but also a place where curious stories and unexpected friendships were born.

2. One day, while customers were waiting for their cars to be fixed, an old sign appeared above the entrance: ‘Bostig’s Garage – Fixing Cars Since Before Time Began.’ No one knew who put it there or when, but every time someone mentioned it, their car started running smoother. One day, a delivery driver pulled in with a frowning face and a groaning engine. He asked if Bostig could help him out. After some mysterious tinkering, the old man simply smiled and said, 'Your troubles are over.' And indeed they were—until the next morning when his boss complained that the truck was delivering packages too fast!”}

3. One afternoon, a delivery driver pulled into Bostig's garage and asked curiously, 'Hey, why is that tire swinging in the wind?' The mechanic shrugged, ‘Oh, that's just Mr. Johnson's special project.’ Finally, someone asked, 'Who’s Mr. Johnson anyway?' The mechanic grinned, ‘Oh, he lives next door. He loves old cars and spends his days here helping out.’ Turned out, every time you heard that mysterious tire moving, it was just Mr. Johnson testing his latest restoration project.

4. One night, a delivery driver pulled into Bostig’s garage and asked curiously, ‘Hey, what’s with all these strange tools hanging from the ceiling?’ The old mechanic smiled mysteriously. 'Ah,' he said, 'those aren't tools. They're my secret recipes for fixing anything.' The delivery driver laughed and left, never realizing that his truck had been tuned up with a special blend of coffee grounds and WD-40.'
