Stan the Muffler Man stands in front of GCR Tires. Stopped by to check him out while in town. It's been a minute since I've seen one of these guys. Love the old school advertising these guys represent. Hope Stan can endure for many years to come.

We went to Muscle Shoals this weekend and hit Birmingham on the way back -- and utilized Roadside America to find and photograph my first Muffler Man! He's looking good. Hope to see more of these guys over the summer as we're heading to Tennessee next!
