About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At dawn, when most mechanics were still stretching their legs, an old pickup truck pulled up to South Point Auto Repair. The engine purred like a contented cat, but no one was behind the wheel. The mechanic, puzzled yet amused, walked around the truck and found a note on the dashboard: 'Forgot to turn off the engine before I left.' Below it was scribbled, 'Thanks for your patience—your neighbor'.

2. At midnight, when only crickets chirped outside, a delivery driver pulled up to South Point Auto Repair with a puzzled look on his face. ‘Guys,’ he asked, ‘have you seen my headlights? They’ve been gone for hours!’ Inside, everyone froze—then burst out laughing. The missing headlights were hanging from a hook behind the counter, where they’d been left after an earlier job. A gruff mechanic shrugged and said, ‘Welcome to South Point Auto Repair—we fix everything but memories!’

3. At sunset, when the neighborhood quieted down, a neighbor stopped by South Point Auto Repair and asked, ‘Did you hear that? The engine sounds like it’s singing!’ The mechanic grinned sheepishly. 'That’s just Mr. Johnson's old Chevy,' he said. 'He always leaves it running while he has dinner.' The neighbor shook his head with a smile, knowing better than to ask why anyone would do such a thing.

4. At dusk, when the garage lights flickered on, a mechanic noticed something odd in the tool shed. A familiar toolbox had been replaced with another—one covered in dust and bearing an unfamiliar brand. Curious, he opened it, finding only old wrenches and rusty nuts. Just as he was about to close it, his eye caught a tiny note: 'Try using these on your next tricky job!' Turned out, it was a prank from a friendly neighborhood mechanic who liked to keep things interesting.
