I was expecting to see the once shabby muffler man of Washington, Ga. when I pulled up. But, to my surprise he had been repainted and is looking great!
[Fuzzygalore, 01/22/2010]Black accent marks in his ears and nostrils are so necessary.
The Muffler Man of Washington still stands, though the business he's in front of, Dayton Tires, looks long closed. There is a Christmas tree up inside. Also, nearby is the Biscuit Man visited by Alton Brown in "Feasting on Asphalt" (Behind the McDonald's up the road).
[John Buchner, 08/27/2008]The Muffler Man has apparently been abandoned by his previous owner, who won a mega-millions lottery jackpot in 2005.
Muffler Man as described in previous spots. A little worse for the wear -- busted arms, cruddy paint, etc. This old guy needs some TLC. The kids loved him! My 5 year old kept asking if he was real.
