About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Kwik Kar Lube & Tune, a regular once asked the mechanic, ‘Why does my car always start singing old folk songs when you’re working on it?’ The mechanic scratched his head and replied with a smile, ‘I’ve got no idea, but maybe your engine’s trying to tell us something.’ A few minutes later, as he tightened the last bolt, an old country ballad filled the air. The regular laughed and said, “Guess I’ll just have to wait until next time for another tune!”
2. At Kwik Kar Lube & Tune, one morning a delivery driver found an old, dusty harmonica in the trunk of a car he was servicing. He blew into it and discovered it played surprisingly well—better than any harmonica he’d ever heard before. The harmonica became a hit among the mechanics, who started calling it ‘Lucky Lips.’ Soon enough, a regular customer claimed it belonged to his grandfather—a traveling musician long forgotten. Now, whenever someone needs their car tuned up, they might hear a tune from Lucky Lips playing softly over the workshop’s PA system.
3. At Kwik Kar Lube & Tune, one day a delivery driver noticed something odd in the loading bay—a strange package wrapped in brown paper and tied with string. Curious, he brought it inside, only to discover it contained vintage racing memorabilia from the 1970s. The delivery driver showed it around, and soon everyone at Kwik Kar was talking about it. It turned out to be worth quite a bit, but no one claimed ownership. So, they decided to auction it off and donate the money to charity. The neighbor who always parked his classic Mustang outside ended up winning the bid—turns out, he was a big fan of those old races.
4. At dawn, when most mechanics were just brewing coffee, a delivery driver noticed an old man whispering into his car's engine. Curious, the driver leaned closer and heard him mumbling something about ‘oil change’ and ‘transmission tune-up’. Turned out, it was just an elderly neighbour who’d forgotten he had an appointment here. Afterwards, everyone in town joked that Kwik Kar’s special service included spiritual alignment for cars.
