About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Caliber Collision and asked curiously, ‘Why does your sign always seem to be waving?’ The mechanic smiled and pointed towards a small flag flapping in the breeze above the shop. 'Oh that?' he laughed. 'It's not our sign—it's just Old Sam from down the street. He likes to wave.' The delivery driver shook his head with a smile, thinking it was one of those quirky local stories Caliber Collision was known for.

2. At dawn, when most mechanics were still brewing coffee, an old Ford truck rolled into Caliber Collision with its headlights on full beam. The mechanic peered through the window and saw nothing but fog outside—until he realized it was coming from inside the shop. The mechanic opened the door wider, and out stepped a sleepy-eyed delivery driver, holding a steaming cup of coffee. ‘Hey,’ he yawned, “I thought I’d drop off these parts early.” The mechanic scratched his head, grinned, and replied, “Next time, maybe just ring the bell?”

3. Late one night, a mechanic heard a strange humming sound coming from behind the garage doors of Caliber Collision. Curious, he walked closer—and found himself face-to-face with a vintage radio playing an old-timey tune that no one recognized. The mechanic fiddled with the dials until an old jazz number came on—clear as day. Smiling, he turned around and nearly bumped into a delivery driver who’d been standing there listening. ‘Hey,’ said the driver, scratching his head, ‘I’ve never seen you here before.’ The mechanic shrugged, grinning: ‘Must be my new ghostly neighbor!’

4. At midnight, as a lone mechanic tidied up, he caught a whiff of something peculiar—a faint scent of freshly baked cookies wafting through the workshop. Curious, he followed the aroma and found an old coffee mug filled with crumbs on a workbench. A note read: ‘For late-night mechanics who never say thanks.’ Turned out, it was his friendly neighborhood baker who’d been leaving treats for him. The next day, the mechanic hung a sign: “Caliber Collision—We Fix Cars…and Hearts!”
