Matt's Auto Care

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Matt’s Auto Care and noticed something odd: an eerie humming sound coming from inside the workshop. Curious, he peered through the window and saw an old mechanic humming along with it, his hands deftly working on a car engine while singing in perfect harmony. As the driver watched, mesmerized, another neighbor walked in whistling 'Happy Birthday'. The old mechanic smiled and sang along without missing a beat, his wrench moving like magic. When the delivery guy finally cleared his throat, everyone stopped abruptly—except for one note that lingered in the air long after they’d gone back to work. Turns out, Matt had been practicing for karaoke night at the local pub.

2. One day, an employee of Matt’s Auto Care found an old, dusty suitcase on the shop floor. Curious, he opened it and discovered… nothing but an ancient, crumpled newspaper clipping about a long-forgotten racecar legend. Turns out, the clipping was from a local race held in the ’80s, and nobody remembered anything about it anymore. The employee framed the clipping and hung it above his desk, proudly claiming it belonged to some distant relative ‘a delivery driver’ once told him about. Now, whenever anyone asks why there’s a picture of an old car race up there, he just smiles and says, ‘That’s my family legacy!’

3. A curious neighbor stopped by one afternoon, peering into Matt’s Auto Care through the open door. Suddenly, he spotted a small, glowing light flicker from behind the workshop counter. The neighbor squinted, rubbing his eyes in disbelief. ‘What on earth is that?’ he whispered. Moments later, Matt emerged from the back, holding a flashlight and scratching his head. 'Oh, just my new neon sign,' he grinned sheepishly. The neighbor shook his head and chuckled, muttering under his breath as he walked away—‘Next thing you know, it’ll be talking cars!’

4. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Matt’s Auto Care and froze mid-step. The smell of fresh-baked cookies wafted from inside—an unexpected aroma for a mechanic shop. Curious, he peeked through the window and saw an old man in overalls baking away in the corner. ‘Delivery guy, huh?’ asked Matt with a twinkle in his eye. The driver nodded, and soon they were chatting like old friends while enjoying freshly baked chocolate chip cookies together.
