A & M Auto

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, an A&M Auto delivery driver found a strange old toolbox in the back of his truck. Curious, he brought it into the workshop. Over the next few days, every mechanic noticed something peculiar: whenever they opened that toolbox, it seemed to contain exactly what was needed for any repair job. Finally, one day, the toolbox produced a brand-new set of tires—even though none were ordered or needed. The mechanics laughed it off until their boss drove up on wheels from another dealership down the street. 'Aha!' he exclaimed, ‘looks like ol’ A&M has its own magical parts supplier!’ Ever since then, whenever someone asks where those mysterious spare parts come from, everyone just smiles and says, 'Ask our friendly neighborhood genie in a toolbox.'

2. At dawn, when most mechanics were just brewing coffee, a delivery driver noticed something odd outside A & M Auto—an old tire swing hanging from the garage door. Curious, he approached and found an ancient tire swing, its rusted chains barely holding on. With a smile, he untangled it and hung it in his own yard as a surprise for his kids. Months later, while delivering parts, he saw an excited kid on that very same tire swing—a regular now, playing where once stood A&M Auto.

3. At dawn, when most mechanics were still stretching their arms, a delivery driver heard a faint humming sound coming from behind the workshop. Curious, he walked closer and discovered an old radio tuned to a staticky station playing nothing but endless laughter. As he approached, the laughter grew louder—so infectious that he couldn't help but smile. Turning the dial slightly, he noticed the announcer saying something about 'the best laugh of the day.' Just then, his colleague called out, ‘Hey, you’re late again!’ The delivery driver looked around sheepishly, realizing it was just another morning at A&M Auto.

4. At dawn, when most mechanics were still stretching their arms, a delivery driver heard a voice from behind the workshop doors: ‘Hey, you got any spare parts for my car? It’s talking!’ The delivery driver looked around suspiciously but saw no one. Shrugging it off as a prank, he opened the door and found an old radio antenna poking out of the dashboard. ‘Talking car, huh?’ he chuckled, unscrewed it, and hooked up his own favorite station. From then on, whenever anyone asked about the place, A&M Auto became famous for its quirky sign: “We fix cars…and sometimes radios.”
