About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, an old mechanic named Joe muttered under his breath as he worked on a car: ‘This thing won’t start today either.’ Suddenly, his wrench slipped and hit a toolbox just right—making it clang like a tiny bell. A nearby customer looked up curiously and asked, ‘Hey, did you hear that?’ Joe grinned sheepishly and replied, 'Just my old bones playing tricks again.' He bent down, picked up another wrench, and winked at the curious customer. 'You know what they say around here,' he added with a twinkle in his eye, 'if your car won't start, come see us—we might fix it or at least make you laugh!'

2. One day, a delivery driver pulled up to E & T Auto Recon with a puzzled look on his face. Over the intercom, a voice crackled: ‘Hey, pal, your package is here—just leave it in the lobby and don’t forget to wave goodbye!’ The delivery driver waved enthusiastically as he left, only to return moments later, confused again. The voice over the intercom quipped, 'Did you forget something else, friend? Just pop back inside!' Finally, the driver shook his head and muttered, 'I’ll never get used to these friendly folks.'

3. One night, a delivery driver pulled up to E & T Auto Recon with a mysterious package marked ‘Top Secret’. As he approached the door, a voice crackled over the intercom: ‘Hey there, Mr. Delivery Guy—we’re closed tonight!’ But then an old man in coveralls appeared and said, 'Just leave it here, sonny.' The next morning, our delivery guy found his bike fixed perfectly—and a note scribbled on a grease-stained napkin: "Thanks for the ride, pal!" It turned out that E&T was actually run by a retired mechanic who loved fixing bikes for neighbors after hours.

4. One night, a delivery driver pulled up to E & T Auto Recon with a strange humming sound coming from his truck's engine. As he approached the shop door, the smell of fresh-baked cookies wafted through the open window—an unexpected aroma for a garage. The mechanic, Mr. Thompson, looked puzzled but smiled and said, 'We fix cars here, not cookies!' He then proceeded to check the engine, only to discover that the delivery driver had accidentally left his wife’s baking tray in the cab. The humming was actually the oven timer on the cookie sheet. A regular customer walked in just then, laughing and saying, 'Guess who forgot their cookies again?'
