About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver noticed an old, dusty guitar case on the service bay floor. Curious, he picked it up and found an ancient instrument inside—complete with a handwritten note promising good luck for anyone who plays it three times. The delivery driver decided to try his luck, playing the guitar three times while humming a tune. Suddenly, the entire garage lit up with colorful neon signs advertising discounts on tire rotations! A nearby mechanic, noticing the commotion, exclaimed, ‘That’s our lucky Firestone guitar!’ Turns out, every now and then, someone leaves their lucky charm here.’
2. At dawn, when most mechanics were just brewing coffee, an old man arrived with a toolbox and a mysterious smile. He introduced himself as ‘Mr. Fixit’ and offered his services for free. It turned out Mr. Fixit was actually a retired mechanic from next door who’d been watching over the shop since closing time. When he finished tinkering with the last car, he would slip back home, leaving behind a note saying, 'Your vehicle is ready—stop by anytime.' One day, a delivery driver asked if it was always like that. Smiling, Mr. Fixit replied, ‘Just another quiet morning at Firestone.’
3. A mechanic was tightening bolts under the hood of a vintage car one afternoon when he heard a familiar voice from behind the counter. ‘Hey, I’ve seen that license plate before,’ said a regular, pointing towards the garage door. The mechanic squinted and followed his gaze—sure enough, an identical vehicle had pulled up earlier that day. The mechanic grinned sheepishly, realizing it was none other than his next-door neighbor who’d driven in for an oil change. 'Small world,' muttered the neighbor, eyeing the vintage wheels with admiration. They both laughed, and soon enough were comparing notes on their respective classic cars over coffee in the waiting area.
4. A little girl walked into the garage one Sunday morning, her eyes wide with curiosity as she pointed at something strange hanging from the ceiling. The mechanic looked up and smiled, ‘Oh that’s just our lucky horseshoe!’ The little girl giggled and ran outside to play, while the workers went back to their routine, wondering if they’d see any more unusual visitors today.
