About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At midnight, when Caliber Collision should’ve been quiet, a delivery driver noticed something strange. The neon sign blinked on and off in an odd rhythm, almost like it was counting down. Curious, he walked inside, only to find everything eerily silent—except for one tool that kept clicking softly in the dark. As he approached the sound, a screwdriver started humming softly, ‘Clickety-clack… clickety-clack.’ Turns out, it was just an old mechanic’s prank—a neighbor had rigged up the tools to sing him happy birthday every night at midnight. The delivery driver laughed it off, shook his head, and left, never realizing how many other drivers were now anxiously waiting for their own late-night serenades.
2. At dawn, when Caliber Collision usually buzzed with activity, a delivery driver heard an eerie humming sound coming from under one of the parked cars. Curious, he peered beneath and saw nothing but an old cassette tape player blasting ‘Y.M.C.A.’ The delivery driver shrugged it off as just another oddity in Caliber Collision’s daily routine. Later that day, while fixing a headlight, he found an ancient Polaroid camera taking pictures of him. When asked by his co-workers, everyone claimed they hadn’t done it—except for a neighbor who admitted to occasionally leaving strange items around as pranks.
3. At closing time, a delivery driver walked into Caliber Collision and asked the mechanic, ‘Did you hear that?’ The mechanic shrugged, but as soon as they both fell silent, they could clearly make out a faint humming sound coming from under one of the cars. The mechanic leaned down and peered under the car. ‘It’s just my radio,’ he said with a smile. The delivery driver shook his head and laughed, thinking it was some kind of joke. But then their neighbor walked in, holding an old cassette tape player. ‘That’s mine!’ she exclaimed, pointing at the car. Everyone burst out laughing, realizing that sometimes the most mysterious sounds turn out to be nothing more than everyday gadgets.
4. At sunset, when Caliber Collision typically slowed down for the day, a delivery driver pulled up to drop off parts. As he approached the workshop door, he heard a voice whispering from inside: ‘Don’t forget your toolbox.’ Curious, the driver peeked inside and saw no one. But there it was—an old toolbox sitting on the workbench. He picked it up, puzzled, and found his own name scratched into the lid. Shaking his head, he shrugged it off as an odd prank by a regular. That night, after locking up, he left the toolbox outside with a note: “Next time, knock!”
