About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At dawn, when Valvoline garage usually buzzed with mechanics’ banter, an old pickup truck pulled in, its headlights casting eerie shadows on the workshop walls. A delivery driver stepped out, muttering something about ‘the usual,’ but no one recognized him. The mechanic shrugged and said, 'Alright, alright, let's see what you've got.' As he popped the hood, a familiar scent wafted through the air—fresh-baked cookies from Mrs. Johnson next door. Turns out, it was her son again, delivering his mom's famous treats disguised as a delivery driver. The whole crew laughed it off, knowing that sometimes, even cars need a little sweet treat.
2. At dawn, when Valvoline garage usually buzzed with mechanics’ banter, an old pickup truck pulled up and its driver asked for unusual help. ‘I need you guys to check something,’ he said into the intercom, ‘but I’ll pay triple if you do it after hours.’ After hours, a sleepy mechanic peered under the hood, only to discover that the mysterious customer had accidentally brought in his wife’s hairdryer instead of the truck. With a chuckle, they fixed it promptly—after all, who could resist a triple fee for such an odd request?
3. At dawn, when Valvoline garage usually buzzed with mechanics’ banter, a delivery driver pulled up in a beat-up van and asked, ‘Hey guys, can you tell me how to fix a car that only starts if I sing “Happy Birthday”?’ One mechanic scratched his head and replied, 'I’ve never heard of such a thing!' Another chimed in, 'Maybe it’s some kind of superstitious ritual.' Suddenly, an old timer from across the bay chuckled and said, 'Ah, those younguns' problems...' He then sang softly, 'Happy Birthday,' and sure enough—the engine purred like new. The delivery driver beamed, 'Works every time!' And so, whenever someone brought their car there, they’d hear a harmonious chorus of 'Happy Birthday' before it started purring again.
4. At dawn, when Valvoline garage usually buzzed with mechanics’ banter, a delivery driver pulled up and asked, ‘Hey, can you guys check something out? My package just delivered itself!' One mechanic looked at another and shrugged, ‘Sure, why not?’ They opened the box to find… a bottle of Valvoline oil. Turns out, it was self-driving delivery day!’
