A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Pye Motors, an old man parked his car and got out one day, only to see his dog staring intently at something under the hood. The engine had been quiet for years, but now it hummed softly when touched. The old man leaned in closer, curious, and suddenly the dog barked excitedly. Out popped a tiny mouse, startled by all the commotion. The driver laughed, shook his head, and said, ‘Guess my car’s finally awake!’ And so, Pye Motors gained another legend: the car that woke up from a decades-long slumber thanks to a mischievous pup.

2. At Pye Motors, a delivery driver pulled up to the loading dock one morning. As he unloaded boxes from his truck, he noticed something odd in the backseat—a small wooden box wrapped in brown paper. Curious, he opened it and found inside a mysterious note reading: ‘Take care of this for me.’ The delivery driver shrugged and stuck the note in his pocket. Later that day, while chatting with a neighbor, he mentioned the strange package. His friend joked, 'You better not open that again!' So, the driver carefully placed everything back where he'd found it—only to discover an identical note and box the next morning. Turned out, someone had pranked him good.

3. At Pye Motors, on a stormy night when lightning illuminated the garage, a mechanic heard a voice calling from beneath the hood of a vintage car. Curious, he peered inside and found only an old cassette tape stuck in the radio. When he played it, a scratchy voice said, 'Could you give me a hand with this thing?' Turned out to be just an ancient delivery driver who’d left his music on.
