Transmission Supply and Services is now closed and the Transmission Man is gone. Their transmission mail box remains, but who knows for how long.

Transmission Man

12-feet tall and around a half ton, Transmission Man (and a totally duct-taped car) stands outside Transmission Supply & Service on the roadside of Hwy 93 in Eau Claire. He is made completely from transmission parts and was constructed by a local artist, who has done numerous other sculptures around the city.

Transmission Man can be seen all day outside the shop.
