About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when Auto Sales & Service Inc closed its doors, a strange humming sound would occasionally drift through the neighborhood. A neighbor first noticed it late one autumn evening, thinking it might be an old engine being tested somewhere inside. Curious, the neighbor decided to investigate and followed the sound one foggy morning. Turned out, it was just an early-morning mechanic, humming along while warming up his truck’s engine before work. The whole town ended up laughing over coffee that day—about how easily they’d been spooked by such a simple thing.

2. At dawn, when most mechanics were brewing coffee, an old truck pulled into Auto Sales & Service Inc. Its headlights cast eerie shadows on the garage walls as the driver, a gruff-looking man in overalls, stepped out with a toolbox and a mysterious smile. He approached the counter where Jack, the owner, was polishing his glasses. 'Need some work done?' asked Jack, eyeing the ancient vehicle. The man nodded, then reached into his pocket and pulled out a crumpled note: 'Just fix it,' he said with a twinkle in his eye. A week later, the same truck returned, its paint job glowing like never before. 'It runs better than ever!' exclaimed the driver. 'And it's worth twice what you paid for it,' grinned Jack. 'Guess I found my secret client—Mr. Mystery Mechanic.'

3. In the early morning, before anyone arrived for service, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar in the loading bay—a mysterious box wrapped in old newspaper and tied with rusted string. Curious, he untied the string and opened it carefully. Inside was an ancient vase, dusty but beautiful. The next day, everyone in the neighborhood stopped by to see it, and soon ‘Auto Sales & Service Inc’ became known as the place where you could buy not only cars but also antique treasures. A regular said jokingly, “Guess our mechanic has a secret life as an antiquarian!”

4. At midnight, when Auto Sales & Service Inc was already asleep, a mysterious van would pull up and leave a single tire outside the door. Finally, one morning a sleepy mechanic found an old bicycle pump next to the tire. He grinned: ‘Someone’s been delivering tires in their sleep!’ Turned out it was just a friendly neighborhood delivery driver who thought they were helping out.
