About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to The Holiday Motor Company and asked the owner, ‘Why does your garage always smell like Christmas?’ The owner smiled mysteriously and replied, ‘Because every time I fix a car here, it’s like giving someone a present for Christmas.’ A regular passing by chuckled and added, ‘Or maybe he just loves pine-scented cleaning products too much!’

2. A little boy walked into The Holiday Motor Company one afternoon, staring wide-eyed at the vintage cars on display. As he approached the counter, an oldtimer behind it exclaimed, ‘Hey, you’re not supposed to be here!’ But before anyone could react, the boy pointed excitedly towards the window, whispering, ‘Look, Daddy, that car’s winking at us!’ The oldtimer looked up just in time to see a rusty old pickup truck slowly nod its head as if saying hello. Everyone burst out laughing, including the little boy who blushed and whispered, 'It’s true!' That day became legendary among locals—everyone knew never to miss a visit to The Holiday Motor Company.

3. A neighborhood kid rode his bicycle past The Holiday Motor Company every day after school. One afternoon, he noticed something strange: the car doors seemed to open on their own. Curious, he approached and saw that the handle was just sticking out slightly. With a gentle push, one door opened—then another, then all four! Turned out it was just an old trick from a delivery driver who wanted to make kids laugh. From then on, whenever anyone asked why those cars had unlocked doors, everyone in town would smile and say, ‘It’s magic!’

4. One evening, a regular was sitting in The Holiday Motor Company, sipping coffee and watching cars go by when he noticed something peculiar. ‘Hey,’ he called out, pointing towards the street, ‘did you see that car just drove by backwards?’ ‘No way!’ another customer chimed in, craning his neck to catch another glimpse. A delivery driver shrugged, laughing, “I’ve seen stranger things—like that guy who always parks sideways.” The regular smiled, finishing his coffee with a satisfied sigh. “Guess some days are just meant for odd sightings,” he mused, preparing to leave.
