Muffler Man

This muffler man is right on the side of the street and he's awesome, really clean! I always see him when I go to the Bank of America across the street. I don't know why they don't have him out in the front where everyone can see him...

Off the main streets now. Saw first in 2004, but didn't know he was important. I just went back and found him again, but he may not be there for long, as he is moved and land is for rent!
