About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At CarStore, where mechanics are as friendly as they come, an old regular named Joe had just finished his oil change. ‘You know,’ he said thoughtfully, ‘I keep hearing strange noises coming from my new engine.’ The mechanic raised an eyebrow and asked, 'Strange noises? Like a humming bee or maybe a whistling tea kettle?' Joe shook his head, exasperated. 'No, more like a tiny orchestra playing in time with my brakes!' They both laughed until another customer came in, needing help with their horn that kept honking 'Happy Birthday'.

2. At CarStore, where mechanics are always up for a joke, one morning a delivery driver exclaimed, ‘Hey guys, I just saw your sign from last week—you fixed my car so fast it’s now going backwards!’ One of the mechanics, grinning broadly, replied, ‘That’s because we installed the engine upside down! But don’t worry, mate—it’ll go forwards again once you drive over a hill.’ The delivery driver shook his head and laughed, realizing that sometimes even backward cars can lead to forward progress.

3. At CarStore, where mechanics never sleep, one night a delivery arrived with headlights brighter than usual. They lit up the entire workshop like daylight. Curious, a mechanic approached closer and saw that the headlights were shaped like giant glowing eyes, staring right back at him. Turns out, it was just an oversized LED billboard for a new restaurant opening next door—installed by a happy neighbor who wanted everyone to know about his place. At CarStore, they fixed cars, but sometimes they also fixed confused mechanics.

4. At CarStore, where mechanics are always up for a challenge, one day a neighbor pulled in with a bike that wouldn’t start. He asked if anyone could help—no tools required. A delivery driver walked over and said he’d fix it right away. After some tinkering, he triumphantly declared it ready. The bike started like a charm, but then the driver noticed his own helmet was still on the handlebars of the neighbor’s bike. Everyone laughed until tears streamed down their faces.
