A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Anchor Auto Body, something strange started happening one morning when a delivery driver asked, ‘Why does that old lady always sit in her car for hours?’ It turned out she was an avid knitter who used the time to crochet cozy seat covers for her neighbors’ cars. The whole town now jokes that if you park your ride at Anchor Auto Body, it’ll come back not just fixed but also festively decorated.
2. One foggy morning at Anchor Auto Body, a delivery driver noticed something odd as he pulled up to the garage door. The usually bustling workshop was eerily quiet—even the usual barking of Mr. Johnson’s dog next door had stopped. As he approached the entrance, the delivery driver heard a soft humming coming from inside. Curious, he peeked through the window and saw an old mechanic, Mr. Jenkins, polishing a vintage hubcap while singing along to an old radio tune. ‘Morning, Mr. J,’ said the driver with a smile. ‘What’s the occasion for such festive mood?’ ‘Oh, just found an ancient radio in the back,’ replied Mr. Jenkins cheerfully. ‘Keeps me company on slow days.’ The delivery driver shook his head and chuckled, thinking that maybe Anchor Auto Body wasn’t so quiet after all.
3. At Anchor Auto Body, one day after closing hours, a curious little dog wandered in through an open door. It kept sniffing around the workshop, pausing every now and then to bark at the old tools hanging on the wall. Suddenly, an old mechanic appeared from behind a greasy curtain, scratching his head. 'Hey, you!' he called out. ‘What’s a little fella like you doing here?' The dog wagged its tail and ran over to greet him, as if they were long-lost friends. That night, Anchor Auto Body became known for not only fixing cars but also hosting occasional canine visitors.
4. At Anchor Auto Body, an old mechanic once muttered, ‘This place is cursed.’ That’s when customers began noticing their cars mysteriously starting on their own. One day, a delivery driver pulled up with a frown: ‘My truck won’t stop!’ The mechanic shrugged and said, ‘That’s what they all say.’ Later that evening, as everyone was leaving, the owner’s dog started barking hysterically—only he wasn’t there. Turns out, his car had driven itself home.
