About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Joe’s Auto shop one morning, an old sign on the wall suddenly lit up and started flashing: ‘Today is your lucky day! Free donuts with every oil change.’ The mechanic shrugged it off, but soon enough, customers began reporting that their cars started purring like kittens after service—even those not due for maintenance. Soon, everyone in town was bringing their cars to Joe’s Auto. Even a local delivery driver complained his bike ran smoother than ever before. Finally, curious neighbors asked Joe what was going on. With a twinkle in his eye, he replied, 'I guess some old wiring got crossed.'

2. At Joe’s Auto shop one afternoon, a little dog wandered in through the open door. As he sniffed around under the hood of a car, everyone watched in surprise when he suddenly sat up straight and started barking at something invisible. All eyes turned towards the mechanic, who scratched his head and said, ‘Well, I don’t see nothing.’ The little dog then jumped onto the hood, pointed his nose towards the sky, and continued barking away. Finally, an old delivery driver chuckled and remarked, ‘Must be talking to his dispatcher!’ Everyone laughed, and the dog trotted out as if on cue.

3. At Joe’s Auto shop one night, a delivery driver swore he heard someone calling his name from inside the empty garage. Curious, he peered around the corner and saw only shadows dancing on the walls. Turns out it was just his friend, a neighbor, practicing his newfound talent of ghostly impersonations. They both laughed it off, and now whenever anyone mentions haunted garages, Joe proudly tells them, ‘It wasn’t even my garage!’

4. At Joe’s Auto shop one evening, a young boy walked up to the counter and asked if they sold cars that could fly. The mechanic looked at him with a twinkle in his eye and replied, ‘We don’t sell flying cars here, son, but I can fix your bike!’ The boy smiled and walked away, while an old delivery driver overheard and muttered, ‘Kids these days… always dreaming of flying machines.’
