About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Frank’s European Service and asked curiously, ‘Why is there always a strange smell of sausage cooking here?’ Frank smiled mysteriously and replied, 'Oh, that's just my secret recipe for sausage breakfasts.' It turned out that every morning, after fixing cars, Frank would treat his regular customers to a hearty breakfast, complete with freshly cooked sausages. The delivery driver soon became one of them, grateful not only for the excellent repairs but also for the unexpected breakfasts.

2. A curious delivery driver pulled into Frank’s European Service one afternoon. As he stepped out of his truck, he noticed an old man vigorously waving from inside the shop. ‘Hey,’ called the driver, ‘what’s going on?’ The old man replied excitedly, ‘I just found out that our mechanic can fix anything—even time!’ The delivery driver laughed and shook his head, thinking it was another of Frank’s quirky stories. Later that night, though, as he lay in bed, he heard a strange humming noise outside. Curious, he peered through the window—and saw the old man happily fixing his truck while simultaneously adjusting the hands of a nearby clock. The next morning, when everything worked perfectly, the driver realized maybe Frank knew more than anyone gave him credit for.

3. One day, a delivery driver pulled into Frank’s European Service for routine repairs. As he waited, he noticed an old, dusty suitcase sitting on the workshop counter. Curious, he asked Frank what it was. With a twinkle in his eye, Frank replied, ‘Just an antique from my travels.’ After a while, the delivery driver couldn't help but wonder about that mysterious case. Finally, he worked up the courage and said, 'Hey Frank, mind if I take a peek inside?' With a sly smile, Frank unlocked the case to reveal… nothing but an old pair of gloves and a note reading “For special occasions only.” The whole place burst out laughing, including the delivery guy who realized he'd been had. "Ah,” Frank chuckled, patting him on the back, "sometimes the mystery is better left unsolved."}

4. One night, as Frank’s European Service closed its doors, an unfamiliar voice crackled over the intercom: ‘If your car is not fixed by dawn, bring it back for free!’ Curious mechanics looked at each other, but no one dared test the offer. Next morning, when Frank opened up, he found a note on his desk: ‘Thank you for fixing my car! It runs like new.’ Below was scribbled in pencil, ‘PS: I’ll be back soon with another one.’ Turns out, it was just a friendly neighborhood prankster who loved his car service.
