The Guardian muffler man is looking great in his metallic auto body paint togs. Now he also holds a giant (even for him) hockey stick to rep the Blackhawks.

Stands on the top of Guardian Auto Rebuilders in Evergreen Park. The Bunyan Muffler Man has a very new, shiny coat of paint.
[Vinny Gragg, 06/13/2011]Atop Guardian Auto Rebuilders. Back up and in service.... Had a low level Tornado/bad storm in late summer 1998 and was knocked down... He was repaired and has fresh Du Pont Chroma base auto paint on him, including candy apple red shirt...
[anon., 01/01/2000]There is a muffler man standing on top of an auto body repair shop in Evergreen Park. He is located on Kedzie Avenue, just north of 95th Street, across from a cemetery. He apparently just had his nails done, in a lovely shade of black, and is showing them off. How gothic!

This Muffler Man, who lacks feet, was toppled by a wind storm in early 2017 (He had previously been felled by a tornado in 1998). The owner of the property, an auto repair shop, vowed to repair the rooftop Bunyan, but thus far he's still missing.
