Muffler Man - Mr. Bendo
Here is a picture of Mr. Bendo as Elvis. He lives at Bucks Muffler Shop in Sioux Falls, SD.
[Jerry Wallenstein, 03/10/2002]Mister Bendo has disappeared from the front of Buck's Muffler. When a local radio station asked Buck's where he went, they said he'd been sent to Minnesota for repair. They also assured the community that he'd return.
[Eric Renshaw, 07/05/2001]I had Buck's Muffler (Sioux Falls) replace the muffler on my car. While waiting, I took a look at their bulletin board. It has very interesting photos on Muffler Men all over the U.S. There is a good one of Mr.Bendo in an Elvis costume . He stands guard outside, holding a tailpipe in his hands. Also they did a great job replacing my muffler at a reasonable price.
