About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At dawn, when most car washes were quiet and empty, a delivery driver noticed something odd. The Works Automotive Detail seemed to be humming softly, as if it were alive. Curious, he approached the entrance and heard soft music coming from inside. Peering through the glass door, he saw rows of cars being polished with meticulous care—by invisible hands. Suddenly, an old man in overalls appeared out of thin air and whispered, ‘Just another day at The Works.’ The delivery driver shook his head, smiled, and walked away, wondering if maybe his coffee had been too strong that morning.
2. At dawn, when most car washes were quiet and empty, a delivery driver noticed an old toolbox left behind on the parking lot. Curious, he opened it and found inside not just tools but also a stack of vintage racing posters. Smiling, he took one poster home as a souvenir. For weeks, his neighbors teased him about ‘racing in his sleep,’ until they saw the same poster hanging outside The Works’ entrance. Turned out, that delivery driver had become the new owner after winning an auction for the entire abandoned garage—and now everyone got free car washes with vintage decor.
3. At dawn, when most car washes were quiet and empty, a delivery driver noticed an old, dusty guitar propped against the wall of The Works Automotive Detail. Curious, he picked it up—and every strum produced perfect notes. Excited, the delivery driver played until another customer arrived—a gruff mechanic who growled, ‘What’re you doin’? This ain’t no ordinary guitar!’ They swapped instruments, and soon the whole place buzzed with music. Turns out, The Works had been housing a legendary instrument left behind by a famous musician’s neighbor. Now, whenever someone needs their car washed, they might just get a free concert too—if they can stand still long enough.
4. At dawn, when most car washes were quiet and empty, a delivery driver noticed an old man whispering something into each freshly cleaned windshield. Curious, he approached closer and saw that every windshield had a small piece of paper stuck neatly inside. On them were handwritten messages like ‘Have a great day!’ or ‘Smile today!’. Before long, word spread around town, turning The Works into more than just a car wash—it became a place where people left feeling uplifted and happy.
