Photo of the St. George Muffler Man I took back in September of 1987, when he was holding a rifle. I think it was a sporting goods store then.
[GreggW, 06/27/2009][We checked in with Owen Johnson on the fate of the Bridger/Billings M-Man:] The Paul Bunyan Muffler Man that I had last in Billings was sold and moved to Connecticut. The gentleman that I sold it to owns The House of Doors and is opening another store and wanted it because he has one at his other location in Conn. It was moved in the fall of 2008.
I still have the complete A&W burger family but no more muffler men.

Went to make my yearly pilgrimmage to see the Muffler Man in St. George, Utah. HE'S MISSING! The motorcycle shop became a car stereo outlet, and subsequently they painted over the word "motorcycle" and left him with only "St. George" printed on his shirt. Last year as I visited there was a "for sale" sign on the property and the car stereo shop looked defunct. Well...that's confirmed...and our muffler man is no longer there.
[Splatt the Harley Ratt, 09/28/2001]He looms like some kind of eerie sentinel over the main drag (St. George Blvd.) in town. Apparently, he loves hoggin' since he is currently the trademark/logo of the cycle shop that he stands above (968 East St. George Blvd., Suite B) Gosh, he's tall.
