About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Tuxford Collision Center and asked the mechanic, ‘Why does your sign keep waving at me?’ The mechanic grinned and pointed to a small flag flapping in the breeze above the shop. 'That's not my sign,' he replied with a laugh. The delivery driver looked around puzzled until he noticed an old neighbor standing nearby, waving cheerfully as always. 'Oh, that’s just Uncle Bob,' said the mechanic. 'He thinks he's helping direct traffic.'

2. A little girl walked into the Tuxford Collision Center one afternoon, her eyes wide with wonder as she pointed at the ceiling. ‘Mommy,’ she whispered, ‘why is that car flying?’ Her mother smiled and gently explained, 'Honey, it's not really flying—it's just a toy car stuck on the ceiling.' The little girl nodded thoughtfully, then turned back to inspect another colorful object hanging from the roof. 'Can I get it down?' she asked sweetly. A nearby mechanic overheard and replied, 'No worries, kiddo—I'll be happy to help you out!'

3. A neighborhood dog started visiting Tuxford Collision Center every day after lunch. As soon as he approached the entrance, all the mechanics would stop their work and laugh out loud. One day, a delivery driver arrived with a huge bouquet of flowers for the dog. Everyone was puzzled until they saw a note attached: 'For our four-legged friend who keeps our spirits up!' Since then, the canine regular became an honorary member of the team.

4. A delivery driver pulled up to Tuxford Collision Center one rainy afternoon, umbrella in hand, when he noticed something peculiar. The usually quiet garage seemed unusually busy, with mechanics scurrying around like ants on speed. As he approached the door, a mechanic suddenly tripped over his own tool belt and landed face-first into a bucket of grease. Startled, everyone froze for a moment—even the rain outside stopped for a second. Then, amidst peals of laughter from both inside and out, the delivery driver realized that maybe it wasn’t such a bad day after all.
